Daughtry
Rock n' roll is seldom a predictable affair. Just ask
Chris Daughtry. Better yet, examine the very public arc the enigmatic
musician carved against the grain of American Idol, electrifying the show's
faithful audience with a gloves-off vocal style that revealed astonishing
breadth with every new song. Still, he found himself at the center of
the most surprising live rub-out in modern television history. Premature
elimination, they called it on the internet, and even though a controversial
lack of votes ended Chris' quest for the top rung of American Idol 5 (a
spot so widely presumed to be his, even Entertainment Weekly referred
to it as "the surest thing in Idol history") it ignited a groundswell
of support from fans vowing he would soon be blazing his own trail.
So much for the audition...
His new album, DAUGHTRY, on 19 Recordings/RCA Records fully delivers on
that promise, but what's most striking about the North Carolina native's
debut is the skillfulness with which he blends his hard won attributes:
The rugged voice tempered by an even sturdier sense of place. The audacious
appetite for risk reflected in his hardscrabble on-the-road writing sessions
with proven rockers - some of them his own formal idols - like Brent Smith
of Shinedown (Chris even covered one of their songs on Idol), Mitch Allan
of SR-71, and Hinder producer Brian Howes. Emboldened by riveting collaborations
such as "What I Want," "It's Not Over," "There
And Back Again," and the probing "All These Lives," it's
evident Daughtry possesses a durable songwriting presence of his own.
