Recent post-American Idol releases include new singles from Nick Fradiani, Alyssa Raghu and Dimitrius Graham.

And Casey Abrams has chimed in with a pair of recent releases.

Here’s a bit about that new music.

The links take you to the songs on Apple Music. Or you can check out the Spotify snippets below.

* Nick Fradiani, Season 14 winner of American Idol, released an excellent new song called “Don’t You Remember?” on Friday. Nick said he wrote the song a few years ago with Eric Donnelly of the The Alternate Routes. “While I’ve been playing it live for quite some time, it felt like the right time to release it.” And check out Nick’s Facebook page. He’s been doing a series of Facebook live shows on Friday nights.

* Alyssa Raghu from Season 17 recently released “Lie to Me,” her second single of 2020. Alyssa says she wrote the song during quarantine and adds that “it incorporates a lot of my own R&B influences that I’ve grown up listening to.” It’s been a busy month for the 18-year-old, who also released a cover of “Someone You Loved” and graduated high school. “Now that I’ve graduated, I’ve got nothing but music and love to share with all of you,” she writes on social media.

* Dimitrius Graham from Season 17 shows off the vocal range that helped him finish Top 10 on American Idol on his new single “Gone.” It’s the second since the show for Dimitrius, whose post-show debut “Souvenir” dropped last August. Corporate Slackrs produced the new track.

* Casey Abrams from American Idol Season 10 released “I Don’t Care” earlier this month. Ten years ago, just before auditioning for Idol, he made a music video for the song that you can check out on his Instagram. He also dropped a cover of Stevie Wonder’s “Who’s in Need of Love Today” featuring the vocals Adanna Duru, another former Idol standout. It’s a song they performed together during Casey’s residency at the Hotel Cafe in L.A.
