Taylor tells (almost) all
Just got off the phone with Season 5 “American Idol” winner Taylor Hicks, and we’ve got some (admittedly minor) scoopage to pass along.
As any loyal member of the Soul Patrol knows by now, Taylor will be in San Marcos Friday night at 7 signing copies of “Heart Full of Soul,” his new book, at Hastings Books, Music & Video, 917 Texas 80. Once he’s done, Taylor tells us he plans to stick around for the weekend. Nothing specific, but we’re pretty sure he’ll pop into a live music venue or two.
Other tasty tidbits:
We tried, but Taylor wouldn’t divulge details on his love life.
A new album should materialize next year.
Look for a new DVD soon featuring Taylor live in concert.
His musical tastes run the spectrum, from Michael McDonald to Elliott Yamin.
Taylor’s apparently a big sports fan. Who knew? He loves the NFL, and also follows Alabama and Auburn universities. (He is from Alabama, after all.)
And, yes, he thinks America made the right choice by picking Jordin Sparks this season.
There you have it, folks. Hear the whole 11-minute interview here.
