Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Recent post-Voice music includes singles from a trio of singer-songwriters — Whitney Fenimore, Lauren Duski and JD Casper.

Below is a bit more about each of those releases. The links take you to the songs on Apple Music.

Whitney Fenimore from The Voice Season 13

Whitney Fenimore from Season 13 has a new song out called “Holding Hands.” She wrote it with Marielle Kraft and recorded it about a year ago. Says Whitney: “Holding Hands is the song I wish I had when I was in my early 20s trying to figure out who I really was. This song is really a letter to myself and anyone else who’s ever felt like they had to hide who they were. There are so many times where I’ve been afraid to be who I was because I thought I might lose friends, family, the church, my career, etc. But living just to please everyone else is a pretty damn awful place to be. So I finally chose me and I’m so glad I did.”

Lauren Duski from The Voice Season 12

Lauren Duski, the runner-up from Season 12, has released her first single of 2022. But this lovely ballad — “World Before You” — was worth the wait. Says Lauren: “If you’re in love with your best friend and can’t remember what life was like before them, I wrote this for you.”

JD Casper of The Voice Season 20

JD Casper from Season 20 recently dropped a single called “The Life You Make.” Says JD: “This song is really personal to me. I hope it find the ears that need it.” JD’s already released three other singles since the show — “New Home,” “The News” and “Sink Like a Stone.”
