We didn’t get a chance to meet many of the talented singers who made it to Hollywood on American Idol.
So I’ve compiled a series of blogs about them, based on their Road to Hollywood videos and music they’ve posted.
For a complete look at the contestants we missed, head here.
James Redden
James says he auditioned for American Idol for the simplest reason. “I couldn’t dream of doing anything else,” explains the young man from Miami, Okla. He says his family and friends provide him with inspiration through their constant support. “I’ve always heard, ‘You’re going somewhere. You’re going to be someone. You’re going to go somewhere with your music.'” Why? Well, for one thing, James says he’s been told there’s a unique smooth and silky tone to his voice. His favorite past Idol contestant is Carrie Underwood. “I seriously think she made American Idol,” he says.
“Small Town Then” (an original)
