Idol Chatter & Voice Views

New post-Voice music out includes a duet featuring former champ Cassadee Pope, a single from Manny Cabo and covers from Joshua Vacanti and Loren Allred.

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

Cassadee Pope from The Voice Season 3

Cassadee Pope, the Season 3 champ, is featured on a new duet with Levi Hummon called “RSVP.” The two wrote the song with Eric Aries. Levi said he was looking forward to the writing session with Cassadee that produced he song and knew he wanted to write a duet. “So much of my music is about good times and parties,” he said, “and so it means a lot to put out a song that’s about when the party’s over so to speak, and things aren’t quite what you hoped they would be. I know we can both relate to that in our lives.”
