Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Madison Lewis from London, Kentucky, reportedly auditioned for American Idol Season 18

And among the singers we might meet during the audition round is Madison Lewis.

Here’s more about Madison.

* She’s a 16-year-old singer-songwriter from London (southeastern), Kentucky, with a jazz and Americana focus.

* She told Kentucky Music Preview that she grew up in a musical family and started taking guitar lessons around age 10, which helped her development as an artist.

* At just 14, she released her debut album in 2017. It’s a 10-song collection of originals called “Back to the Blue.”

* Ken Holbrook produced the album. Here’s what he said about Madison: “After listening to the final mixes of this project, I had the realization that I was listening to the beginning of a something really special – a cross between Joni Mitchell and John Prine. The level of musical sophistication that Madison possesses at the ripe old age of 14 is just plain baffling.”

* Her experience includes performances at Eddie’s Attic in Atlanta and the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville.

* Madison also told Kentucky Music Preview that she has a wide range of musical interests and, at the time, she said she tended to gravitate toward old-school artists.

* That appreciation apparently hasn’t changed. Madison has recently posted photos of her and her brother attending shows featuring Queen, Sammy Hager, Tanya Tucker, Joe Walsh and Mickey Dolenz.
