Bucky hits the charts

Miami Herald: “The most cohesive album to come out of the franchise yet.”

Dallas Morning News: “Easily the best country album by an American Idol contestant.”

Entertainment Weekly: “The North Carolinian with the throaty drawl could sell everything-from the cheeky to the weepy. And he does.”

Yes, these words are for our dear Bucky Covington, the season 5 finalist, the resident southern country guy.
