Crystal Bowersox - Farmer's Daughter (CD)

Facts 2010 AMERICAN IDOL runner up Crystal Bowersox presents her debut album FARMER'S DAUGHTER. Featuring "Holy Toldeo," the first original song ever performed by an IDOL contestant during the competition phase of the show, the set also included the arresting title track, chronicling her personal experience with child abuse. The twelve tracks, ten of them written or co-written by Bowersox, showcase her strong songwriting skills and her desire to infuse her lyrics with that raw emotion of someone who has lived. The album also contains eight songs written solely by Crystal, two co-writes, an additional track by Kara DioGuardi and Nickelback's Chad Kroeger titled "Hold On," and a cover of Buffalo Springfield's 1967 classic "For What It's Worth." One very special song is "Mason," a song Bowersox co-wrote with her husband Brian Walker, which they performed together at their recent nuptials.
