Chris-Sligh-Courtesy-Jason-Kempin-FilmMagicHe came into Idol’s season 6 Birmingham auditions with a fun, quirky style and a voice that could knock your socks off. So it’s really no big surprise to see that American Idol 6 contestant Chris Sligh has scored a record deal and will be releasing an album later this summer.

Sligh, an Idol fan favorite (one of my favorites, anyway) has signed a recording contract with Atlanta-based independent label Brash music. His debut album, Running Back to You, is scheduled to be released May 6th. His first single, Empty Me, will hit airwaves as soon as this week.

Sligh finished 10th in season 6 of American Idol.

Catch the current season of American Idol on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday this week on FOX.
