Taylor Hicks Album Called “The Distance” – Single due January 6

Taylor Hicks tells the crew at Providence’s PRO FM 92 that his new album, due to drop 2/10, will be called The Distance and will have a “James Taylor and Van Morrison” type of vibe. Goodbye Modern Whomp? Not a moment too soon! I’m now officially kinda excited for the record to drop.
The first single is scheduled to be available on iTunes Jan. 6th.
Taylor is in Providence, RI right now, playing the Teen Angel in the touring company of Grease.

I love Taylor and am waiting for his new music. To me he is the epitome of an artist. I flew over from Spain to see him live and I was not disappointed. There have been only 3 American Idols who have captured my heart and that is two males, David Cook and Taylor Hicks and one female, Diana DeGarmo. That has not changed over 7 seasons. Only 3 have been my absolute favourites. I will always be there for them.
That’s a great description. I hope for the same, and can’t wait to hear it.
Sounds much more promising than modern whomp. I have high hopes!
I couldn’t care less what he calls his record label.
What he was describing as “Modern Whomp”–his post-Idol album. I didn’t care for that so much. That was my point.
