Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Jovin Webb, a Louisiana-based musician, auditioned for American Idol Season 18.

And among the singers already announcing they auditioned is Jovin Webb.

Here’s more about Jovin:

* He’s lead singer in a pair of bands performing in Louisiana and the southeast, Bayou Bullets and Captain Green.

* Bayou Bullets is five-piece rock/blues band, based on information from its Facebook page. Jovin joined the group in October 2017.

* The band released an EP pre-dating that and a single since — “Kiss & Tell” from 2018.

* Captain Green is a Baton Rouge funk-jazz-fusion band that also performs at events and weddings. It released an album called “Jazz Noise” in 2017, but it’s strictly instrumental.

* Jovin also has his own original music, and I’ve embedded a snippet of a southern-blues song called “When I’m Gone” below.

* Jovin posted a photo announcing his audition for Idol way back on Jan. 1, encouraging fans to watch and see if he advanced.

* His YouTube channel features an impressive range of covers, from Otis Redding to Chris Stapleton to Radiohead.

* On Facebook, he describes himself as “just an artist and musician from Louisiana who has a passion for music and wants to share it with the world!”
