Word Has It: Gospel Folk on American Idol

Word has it that American Idol is THE SPOT for gospel folks to land in their off-season.  No, not as contestants… in the band.

Onitsha, who is currently working on her sophomore gospel album as a follow-up to her acclaimed debut Church Girl, is a background vocalist on the show each week.

AAAAAND, Teddy Campbell has long been a drummer for the American Idol band.  In case you didn’t know, he’s also the lead singer of the Stellar Award-winning gospel quartet group, Soul Seekers, and the husband of Mary Mary’s Tina Campbell.
