In the July 28 issue of the Globe, Josiah Leming speaks the truth about Idol. They play it up as "biting the hand that fed him" but he's not saying anyhing particularly vicious and it's all true. We totally agree, Josiah. Can't wait to see you outsell David Cook. VFTW Victory!
We've known for a while that friend of VFTW Josiah Leming had signed a record deal with Warner Bros. But now it's up on their media information site. One new detail mentioned in the article is that Josiah didn't just sign a record deal but also a publishing deal (more money for his songwriting). Right now, Josiah is in London working with producer David Kosten, which means he's in the land of all of his idols working on his own music. Very awesome. And this is the guy that Randy said is "no David Archuleta?" We'll compare Gaspy's career to Josiah's next year and get back to you with a giant belly laugh. Thanks for that one, Randy. And we can't wait for the album, Josiah!
We met up with Josiah Leming, AKA one of the true winners this season, at the Amanda Overmyer Whisky show. And he's one cool dude! Stay tuned for his album coming out this September on Warner Bros. Records. Since he's getting to make the album he wants to make and he's not saddled with the Idol crap, we're guessing he's going to sell even better than anyone else this season. We'll see what happens!
Worster Josiah Leming has more and more to smile about these days. Knoxnews.com reports that Josiah recently signed a major record deal with Warner Brothers Records. He also has a lawyer and agent who made sure the deal was good to go. We're glad to hear it. Congrats to Josiah for being one of the only contestants who didn't crack the finals to receive a major record deal. This is big for him, and we couldn't be happier. VFTW victory! Next up: Danny Noriega and Amanda Overmyer's big plans.
VFTW favorite Josiah Leming was on the Ellen Degeneres Show today. Ellen was awesome enough to give him a ton of music equipment to help him with his career. Looks like he's doing just fine without being in the top 24. Nice going, Josiah!
On February 13, VFTW had the pleasure to interview one of American Idol 7's biggest rising stars: Josiah Leming. Tune in and listen to the interview with Josiah where we discuss the perils of Hollywood week, who Josiah thinks should win it all, where Josiah is looking for that special lady, what he would have done for country week, and more... like how much he actually cries. And remember, this is the last show for 3 weeks- for the next 3 weeks we'll be voting on Wednesdays, but we'll be back on March 12 with Tom Lowe! The download link above is fixed. Enjoy!
