They showed up in raincoats, hoodies or covered in plastic. Some wore boots to wade through the mud. They turned out to see the gal they rooted for back on season one of American Idol, the gal they still follow. Kelly Clarkson is seven years and four albums into her post-Idol career. But a remarkable…
If you’re heading to what’s promising to be a wet Kelly Clarkson performance at the York Fair tonight, you might want to be familiar with this name as well: Eric Hutchinson.

Remember Mishavonna Henson? If not, you’d have a good excuse. She was one of the many Idol semifinalists swallowed up by the numbers game on season eight of American Idol, when we got to see far too little of many talented contestants. Anyway, Mishavonna has released a new single, “My Cowboy,” that is now available…

Carrie Underwood says hosting the County Music Awards takes her mind off whether she’s going to win or not. Good thing, because she was just nominated for two more CMAs. Carrie is one of five nominees for top female vocalist, along with Taylor Swift, Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride and Reba McEntire.And she is also nominated…
His eighth-place finish on season five of American Idol hardly guaranteed future stardom. But then Bucky Covington released his self-titled debut album in April 2007.
