After graduating with a music degree in , she moved to Charleston, quickly building a reputation as the front woman of bands like Slanguage, The Freeloaders, and James Brown Dance Party. Are you still doing music? That sentiment existed long before her January debut on the top-rated FOX reality competition. Instead, it has provided her the confidence, fan base, and financial breathing room to record the album she always knew she had within her but never had the time to make happen.
There was no venture capitalist backer or even a Kickstarter campaign. The money she did save is gone. Most importantly, she used the extra cushion to avoid playing 10 gigs a week, allowing her time to slowly refine the collection of songs that will shape her career moving forward.
In the end, the Idol experience will have left Testone with 80, Twitter followers and one heck of a debut album. Some of the tunes were rounded out with input from her band, which includes Mullinax, Ben Wells bass , and Daniel Crider drums. Having performed with each before going on Idol, she chose them from among her many musical friends in Charleston for their common vision for the band. They entered the studio last February, everyone having cleared their schedules for eight long days fueled by funk, adrenaline, and when the nights got late, a little bourbon.
Bold Decisions Despite all of her success, an international fan base, and a voice that commands a room, Testone still has her doubts. Still, the Idol experience has clearly boosted her confidence in her ability to choose for herself what sounds best. Like many artists Testone has improvised during the pandemic. She admits the virus has taken a toll on her income. She owes her sanity and livelihood to her faithful followers.
Family ties, staying busier, and increased advantages to further her career aside Testone says she has a soft spot for the Holy City. Her list of favorite spots in the low country is long. I also love performing at the Charleston Music Hall. Testone says another local night club new to the downtown scene has real promise. I am excited to watch it grow and evolve. With American Idol well in her rearview mirror, Testone has many career highlights over the past eight years.
That allowed for coast to coast exposure. Performing in that scene has also always been one of my goals and I made memories during that time that I will never forget! It was amazing. Another of her dreams became reality recently.
It has always been a dream of mine to have my music on vinyl and it has finally come true! If anyone is interested in requesting a video of any song, a cover or an original, I am currently fulfilling those requests via my Facebook Fan Page.

Another outlet for her is based in the low country. If anyone is interested they can message him or me to sign up! Most of my lessons are online these days. Through it all Testone wants her fans to know she is content with her career moves.
