From American Idol to Ashland

 

Ashland Poage Landing Days is bringing American Idols Bucky Covington to headline this year’s festival.  Bucky Covington’s self-titled CD debuted at #1 on Nielsen SoundScan’s Country Top 75 Chart with not only 2007’s biggest unit debut from a new country artist, but also the best first week sales and highest Top 200 debut for any new male country artist since Billy Ray Cyrus in 1992. Bucky Covington hit another career milestone when his first single “A Different World” cracked the Top 10 on country radio, delivering the country singer his first Top 10 hit. The song is currently reaching a weekly audience of 21 million listeners.

Bucky Covington adds a new twist to the notion that winning is everything. The eighth-place finalist on the fifth season of the runaway hit TV show American Idol, Covington has now parlayed that into a burgeoning country music singing career. And that was exactly what he set out to accomplish

He's a genuine good ole Southern boy with oodles of down-home charm that grew up in the heart of NASCAR country racing dirt bikes and four-wheelers and loving country music. "Like everyone else, I've always sung in the shower and the car," he says. After he graduated from high school, Covington bought his first guitar and taught himself how to play (he also plays bass and drums).
