<p>For this week&#8217;s CAW, I chose newcomer <strong>Bucky Covington</strong>. I&#8217;m not a big <strong>American Idol</strong> fan myself, but I remember seeing his audition tape as he sang &#8220;Simple Man&#8221; from Lynyrd Skynyrd and thinking &#8220;God I hope this tv show doesn&#8217;t eat that boy up and spit him out!&#8221;. He&#8217;s not pretty, he&#8217;s not full of forced politeness, and he&#8217;s not today&#8217;s typical prissy and preened radio star. Bucky gritted his teeth and toughed it out in America&#8217;s biggest dog and pony show, making it all the way to #8 before being voted out in favor of Taylor Hicks (who is now all but disappeared off the map entirely). Meanwhile <strong>Bucky Covington</strong> has got a record deal with Lyric Street, and a 2008 concert tour with <strong><a title="Dierks Bentley" href="https://countrymusicontour.com/dierks-bentley-concert-tour-dates/">Dierks Bentley</a></strong>. It&#8217;s no wonder why he&#8217;s singin&#8217; &#8220;<strong>It&#8217;s Good to Be Us</strong>&#8220;! Stay tuned throughout the week for more hot facts about <strong>Bucky Covington</strong>!</p>
