We’ll hear performances from the eight semifinalists tonight on The Voice. And we don’t even know the names of all of those semifinalists yet. Frenchie Davis and Beverly McClellan have nailed down spots from Team Christina. Dia Frampton and Xenia have done likewise from Team Blake. From Team Cee Lo? Javier Colon is a sure…
Platinum Hit is down to eight songwriters after Monday night’s episode. And former Idol contestant Jackie Tohn narrowly avoided elimination for the second straight week. Instead, one of her team members got the boot. Again. This time the victim was Amber Ojeda, a gal from Los Angeles who described her songwriting style as new soul…
David Cook’s second post-Idol album, “This Loud Morning,” won’t be released until Tuesday. But anxious fans don’t have to wait that long to hear the full album.

A couple of standouts, a couple of missteps and a bizarre save — that pretty much summed up the second live quarterfinal episode on The Voice Tuesday night. The standouts — and I mean by a country mile in a competition that once featured three male country artists — were Vicci Martinez from Team Cee…
David Cook’s Walmart Soundcheck session went live a couple of hours ago, and it’s sure to be a treat for his fans. When I’ve watched some of these in the past, I’ve been disappointed to learn that they feature a couple of new songs, but mostly older material. Not David’s. You get to hear five…
The quarterfinals continue tonight on The Voice. We’ll get to hear from the members of Team Cee Lo Green. Watch out for Nakia and Vicci Martinez in particular. We’ll get to hear form the members of Team Adam Levine. Keep an eye and ear on Jeff Jenkins and Javier Colon. And we’ll learn the results…
David Cook fans will want to check out Walmart Soundcheck on Wednesday. That’s when the site will go live with a new David Cook interview and video of him performing tunes from the album, including lead single “The Last Goodbye.” Of course, it’s all part of the lead up to the release of his second…
