Of course, Daughtry has branched out as well. According to his website, he'll head out on a cross-country tour this summer, and these dates prove he is still capable of filling an arena.
Music is still a big part of the former reality star's life, and fans can still catch him live. He released two more equally successful albums, and a greatest hits album in 2016 that commemorated the 10 years since he appeared on the series. After appearing on the show, the star released a self-titled album that debuted at number one and featured seven hit singles, including memorable tracks like "It's Not Over" and "Home". While he's done some acting, hosting, and has a fulfilling family life, music still seems to be a major priority.ĭaughtry competed on American Idol all the way back in 2006, and a lot has happened for the singer since. If you've been wondering what Chris Daughtry is up to these days, know that the singer still works in the music industry. While some superstars like Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood are still on the cultural radar, other contestants keep a lower profile, like one particular rocker finalist. After all, it's still possible to keep tabs on the former Idol contestants, many of whom have gone on to achieve varying levels of success. The show was an undeniable hit, but many feel it's too soon to resurrect the past. During the television singing competition's original 15-season run, it launched the careers of many stars, and inspired countless spin-off series. They criticized the 17 songs clocking in at 61 minutes, with an average of 3.30 for each song.The decision to bring back American Idol is not without controversy. The reviews weren’t kind to it, stating that Daughtry is suffering an identity crisis. It’s “September” Part 2 and I wouldn’t have it any other way. It percolates like “Bad Company”.Īnd at 1.38 it explodes into an angry Chorus.
Press play just to hear Daughtry sing, “Losing My Mind” and using his falsetto for “mind”. Simple acoustic Intro and an emotive vocal melody.
It’s the title track, but by now all of the songs on the album are written so concisely for radio, that at 3 minutes and 30 seconds long, they feel stale and lifeless. It’s a power ballad in the Bon Jovi vein. The groove is sleazy and it reminds me of Shinedown. Sixx AM did something similar on their “Modern Vintage” album. In 2019, 8 years after its release, it received a Platinum certification.Īn acoustic guitar and a vocal melody starts the song. It’s the most heaviest song, but the album doesn’t follow that path.Īnd the message of busting out of the comforts of your town like a renegade resonates with the ones who desire that change. It was released as the album’s lead single and it rocks from the opening dropped D riff. When I saw the title, Styx came to mind along with Tommy Shaw’s voice. The album was produced again by Howard Benson and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge.Īnd the certification trend in the U.S continued, this time a Gold certification. The band for the album is Chris Daughtry on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Josh Steely on lead guitar, Brian Craddock on rhythm guitar, Josh Paul on bass and Robin Diaz on drums. It follows the sound of the previous album’s and it’s more of a band album this time around with Chris Daughtry writing all of the songs with band guitarists Josh Steely and Brian Craddock, bassist Josh Paul, and in collaboration with Marti Frederiksen, Busbee and Brett James.
“Break the Spell” is the third album by Daughtry, released on November 21, 2011, by RCA Records.
