Idol Chatter & Voice Views

New post-Voice music includes a debut album from Hello Sunday and singles from Wé McDonald and Caroline Sky.

Here’s a look at each of those releases.

The links take you to the releases on Apple Music.

* Hello Sunday, the teen duo from Season 17, released their debut album, “Heiress to the Throne,” last week. It’s an impressive 10-song pop collection, all the more impressive considering Myla Fink and Chelsea Glover were just 14 when they auditioned for The Voice and finished Top 8. The ladies also just released the music video for “Curves,” featuring Kaay Money. “This was the last song we recorded for our project,” they write on social media. “After listening to all of our songs we felt something was missing. This song was just the thing we needed to round out the album. It’s all about body positivity & loving yourself, embracing your curves & hips and not being ashamed if you’re not the typical model size the world tries to make us think we should be.” The album features two other songs that have already been turned into music videos — “Hair” and “Equal” — and be sure to check out the standout track “Throne.”

* Wé McDonald, a Season 11 finalist, released “White Chocolate,” her first single of 2021 on Friday. Wé had tried out the song on her TikTok followers. You might say they approved. The post has more than 247,000 views and more than 67,000 likes. “You wanted it! You got it!” Wé wrote on Instagram on release day.

* Caroline Sky has teamed up with Nadav Skloot on a single called “Dancing in July” that dropped last week. Caroline promises a summer anthem. Nadav writes “don’t ask me how @carolinesky came up with that super catchy melody and awesome lyrics.” Anthems are in for Caroline these days. She called her May single “White Lace” her anti-marriage anthem. She also made the Top 40 on Season 19 of American Idol, though she never appeared on our TV screens.
