VALDOSTA, Ga. (WALB) – An American Idol finalist and South Georgia native will perform at the 2024 Levitt AMP Valdosta Music Series.
Douglasville native Megan Danielle is a Christian/Country music artist who finished as the runner-up on the 21st season of American Idol, according to a release.
She has been performing live since she was 15 years old and says music has always been a strong presence in her life.
“Since I was a little girl, I have always enjoyed listening to music and singing along to anything I’d hear,” Danielle said. “I was always so shy to pursue it but eventually around the age of 15, I booked my own show at a restaurant in Douglasville.”
In 2020, she competed on The Voice, and in 2022, she auditioned for American Idol after a record producer reached out to her on Instagram. During her time on the singing competition show, she showcased her talents inspired by a wide variety of musical influences including Miranda Lambert, Fleetwood Mac, Lauren Daigle, and Patty Griffin, among others.
In 2023, Danielle’s debut single “Dream Girl” was released. She attributed her hard work and success to her faith and the influence of her late grandfather. The release said Danielle’s grandfather is cited as the person who “most encouraged her to live up to her potential, the 21-year-old is excited to develop her musical career by drawing on a lifetime of transformative experiences.”
She is one of 10 free, live performances in the 2024 Levitt AMP Valdosta Music Series. Megan will be performing on March 29.
