Meet the top 10 contestants on 2023’s AmericanIdol
When he was five years old, Smith was watching the 1980 moviewith his mother when he burst out singing Loretta Lynn’s title song. My mom said, ‘Where did this come from? My boy can sing!’” She called everyone in her family to tell them, and after that, Smith started singing in church. He says that it took him some time before he realized he had musical talent. At age eight, he entered a Christian-type competition and finished in third place.
Steele’s family moved from Howell, Mich. to Mount Juliet, Tenn., when he was three, but his earliest memory of music dates back to his early years in Michigan. “I remember this side room in the house that we lived in. It was very messy and unorganized and there were instruments all over the place and songbooks that had clearly been typed with an old computer or a typewriter years ago. Just pages and pages of lyrics in a big, massive book.
Before he wrote his first song, he was proficient at poetry. “I entered a contest in middle school and I was one of two students who had poems published in a book. So when I got into music it was a natural transition to write songs.” Stough was a junior in high school when he performed in front of an audience for the first time, playing three songs at a wedding. He does play gigs when he’s back in his hometown but tellsStough was nine when he first watched. The winner of that season was Caleb Johnson. “We have the same style so when he won, I thought maybe I’ll go on the show one day — but I never really thought I would.” Once again, it was Stough’s mom to the rescue. She surprised him by signing him up to audition.
