New Music, 'The Revolution"

Hello everyone,

Hope this blog finds you well and gearing up for a fun summer!!

I am just getting back to LA and settling in a bit. As you may or may not know, I was in Gallatin (my home town) where I did a performance for Volunteer State Community College, I went to NY, and then to Mexico. Three weeks on the road makes for a lot of luggage and laundry!

The show in my hometown was pretty fantastic. It was such a treat to go home and do a show for the people who have known me all my life and encouraged me along the way. It was an emotional night as I was proud of myself and overwhelmed by the support. It was like everything up that point all made sense as I reflected on my journey. Not only was I presented the Key to the City, the college started a music scholarship in my name. That was pretty awesome!

After that show I was off to NY for a couple of very important meetings with Disney/ABC. I’m sure you’ve heard the news that I will be a part of a new daytime talk show premiering on ABC daytime in Jan 2012. (Happy Birthday to me!) The show is tentatively called, “The Revolution”. I will be co-hosting with fashion expert, Tim Gunn and fitness guru Harley Pasternak. Hosting a TV show has been a (long-term) goal of mine since American Idol. Eight and a half years later, here I am. Writing this in a blog is very surreal. I just can’t believe it! The day I received the news I was completely blown away and shocked. So I am very excited to share this news with you and thank you for all of your encouragement and support over the past several years. I hope you enjoy the show!

Once I left NY I went to Mexico where I performed for Club Atlantis at the Club Med in Cancun. I had never been to Cancun and I must say it was breathtaking and I sure needed a few days of down time to relax and chill. That’s exactly what I did. It was fantastic. After a few days of rest, I must admit I was eager to get back to work.

I know you all are asking, “What about the music?” Well, I am so glad that you asked. LOL. I recently started a new company called I AM Entertainment. I am proud to announce that I will be releasing my music as an independent artist this time around under the company. I know that you are anxious to know when the new music is coming and it is coming very soon. First, I want to ask you a question, “Would you cast your vote to help me and my team determine the next radio single?” Of course you would, right? Well, this is what we are doing, in a few weeks my team will be launching a voting campaign via Facebook. We will be posting 3 audio clips of my new songs that you, the fan, can vote for. Which ever song you vote for the most will be the next song at radio. I encourage you to get as many people as you can to go to the fan page and vote for the single, the more the better, right? I hope you are as excited as I am! I have been writing music for the past year and I can’t wait to see and read your comments. If I know one thing about my fans…. you are honest!!!! That’s what I love about you the most! So with that being said, let’s get this party started. Thanks for your patience and support. Thanks for making me a successful recording artist. Let’s get another hit on the charts!

More news to come, stay tuned!!!!

One Love,
