Season 5 American Idolwinner, Taylor Hicks, is hoping that his new album, The Distance, will do just that…go the distance. He says his is exactly where he wants to be right now as a musician and a songwriter.

In an interview with the Associated Press, Taylor Hickssaid, “I am thrilled to have the calibre of musicans on the record and I feel that strongly about the calibre of songwriting on the record.”

What does Taylor Hicks think is different this time about his new album, compared to his other recording? Taylor Hicks says, “The key for this particular project was time” He added, “I had the time to create the songs, time to record the music, time to really think about the producers that I wanted to work with and the writers I wanted to work with.”

Taylor Hicks says that he “feels blessed” to have the opportunities that he has had to be an entertainer in both music and in broadway by using American Idol as a platform.

Taylor Hicks who has been named, The Soul Man of American Idol is not singing this week during the 50 year celebration of Motown on the hit Fox show, which is surprising. It makes us wonder if they are holding onto his appearance for an Elvis themed week on American Idol?
