Danny Gokey
Danny Gokey first caught the attention of the nation on “American Idol” season 8. Danny’s hope is that people can find a part of their story in mine and that it will inspire hope in others. There are new beginnings. You can recover after devastating loss. Your past does not have to define you or your future. After losing his wife (and high school sweetheart) Sophia to a congenital heart disease, Danny auditioned for “American Idol” - something his wife asked him to do before she passed away. When I tried out for 'American Idol' it was a month after she (Sophia) passed away. People asked, 'why'd you do that?' Believe me, I didn't want to try out for this show. But I had made a promise. Everything inside of my heart said I don't want to try out for the show because I had nothing to say to anybody," he explains. "I was so hurt, I wished I could go the next year, but I was 28 at the time and you only have until 28 years old to try out. So, I was placed in a rock and a hard place and little did I know that God was writing my story before I got there. He put me in that place." Danny not only passed the “American Idol” audition, he landed in third place, signed a record deal, and released his first album My Best Days which debuted at number 4 on the Billboard charts. Danny’s most recent album release is “Haven’t Seen it Yet”. Danny is remarried and lives in Nashville with his wife Leyicat and their children. https://www.dannygokey.com
