Idol Chatter & Voice Views

The American Idol Top 5, Clark Beckham, Rayvon Owen, Tyanna Jones, Nick Fradiani and Jax.

The Idol Top 5 from Season 14 — winner Nick Fradiani, Clark Beckham, Jax, Rayvon Owen and Tyanna Jones — were joined by special guest Adanna Duru, who made the Top 11 and hails from Riverside.

Now it’s time to see what these talented singers deliver in terms of post-Idol music, though we’re likely to have to wait a while to find out.

The Press Enterprise interviewed Nick prior to the Riverside show, and he indicated his solo album won’t be out until sometime next year. Pre-orders, however, are already being taken on his Pledge Music page.

“I can’t wait to share new music with you all!” Nick tweeted earlier this week. “Two days of tour and then it’s all in on the album. So ready. Let’s do this!!”

Other members of the Top 5 took to Twitter to express their feelings about the tour coming to an end.

Jax showed off a scrapbook put together with the help of members of her JaxPack fan group and wrote: “I still can’t believe the tour is over. I wish I could live on the road permanently.”

And from Clark: “Last day of tour. I think I’m gonna cry … GOD KNOWS IM GONNA MISS THESE PEOPLE! AHH!!!”

In case you missed the summer tour, I’m embedding a closing night performance from each of the singers below. You can hear lots more by going to the YouTube channel of Tia Lakandula, who has posted 15 videos from the concert, including some group numbers.
