American Idol Runner Up, Bo Bice Live In Concert! After coming a very close second to country superstar, Carrie Underwood in Season 5 of American Idol, Bo Bice is blazing his own trail in the music industry.



Known for his diverse vocal abilities, the songs Bo Bice is writing these days have put him in a new spot musically.
"My next record will continue to reflect my love of my country, my family' my faith and the emotional journey I'm on," he said during a recent interview from a recording studio behind his home that he shares with his wife and three young children. "I moved my family to Nashville six years ago and that change is now reflected in my music."



"I've always been a family man," Bice continued' referencing his feelings for his mother' a gospel singer who infused him with a love of music at an early age. "My mom remarried and moved our family to England when I was just a kid. But before I finished school, I knew I wanted to be in a band and I returned to Alabama to continue that process."



It was a hard decision to leave his mom in England, and he addressed it in "You Take Yourself With You," (a song that charted in the Top 20 on GAC's Video Countdown) from his 2010 release, 3. "D. Scott Miller and I wrote that song when we were just sitting and talking about the first time you leave home," he said. "He's older than me, but everyone has that same feeling when they take off."



The album 3 was Bice's first brush with the Nashville community, and all its songs were written or co-written by Bice, with production credits by Bice and D. Scott Miller (who's worked on hits by Trace Adkins, Patty Loveless and Asleep at the Wheel, among others).
