Phillip Phillips

The same day that Leesburg, GA bred Phillip Phillips claimed his victory in American Idol's season 11 finale, the 22-year-old songwriter/guitarist released "Home," a debut single that showcases his rich, raspy vocals and masterful guitar skills- and marked the biggest opening sales week for an Idol winner's coronation song. The track has since gone double platinum and was used as the soundtrack for the 2012 US Olympics Women's Gymnastics team and more recently has become the unofficial theme for Hurricane Sandy relief. Phillip’s debut album The World From The Side Of The Moon is out now on 19 Entertainment/Interscope Records.
