Idol Chatter & Voice Views

New post-Voice music out includes singles from Kylie Rothfield and Tyke James and covers from Anthony Arya and Whitney Fenimore.

In Anthony’s case, that’s an EP full of covers, one featuring a special guest from his season of The Voice.

Here’s a bit more about each of those releases. The links take you to the songs on Apple Music.

* Kylie Rothfield from Season 11 has released “Ghost,” the song she pitched on NBC’s Songland in an episode that aired last June. Actually, the song was called “Lonely” before Kylie worked on it with producer Ester Dean. She also credits Zack Djurich, Shane McAnally and Ryan Tedder (“four absolute legends to be associated with”) for assisting on the song. And she has packaged the song on an EP with three other singles released over the past year or so — “Everyone Else,” “Too Late” and “Newport.” She also recently released the music video for “Everyone Else.”

* Tyke James from Season 15 released “killer way,” the second song he’s dropped from an EP he says he’ll be releasing late summer or early fall. He also just released the music video for the first song on the EP, “Saw You in a Dream.”

* Anthony Arya from Season 15 has released a six-song EP of covers called “Listen to the Voice of Anthony Arya.” All the featured songs are classics hits, including “50 Ways to Leave Your Love” and “Amie.” As a special treat, Voice colleague Sarah Grace is featured on Anthony’s version of “Me and Bobby McGee.” Says Anthony: “We recorded this track all remotely from California to Texas and I think it came out real special.”

* Whitney Fenimore, a Top 24 finisher from Season 13, recently released a cover of the King Princess song “1950.” Whitney also had a hand in writing recent releases by Gina Venier (“Trust Issues”) and a duet by former Voice contestant Brennley Brown and Bryan Lanning (“Steady”).
