What Is Chayce Beckham Doing Now After Winning American Idol?

In an interview with "Good Morning America" the day after winning "American Idol," Chayce Beckham explained that his goal for the future was to replicate the success he'd had from his winning song. "What I'm trying to do is make country music and go to Nashville and hopefully get an album out and, you know, have some more songs on the charts," he shared. 

That was in May 2021. Eleven months later, he made good on those dreams. His first album, "Doin' It Right," was released in April 2022 and, perhaps unsurprisingly, given his previous success, it topped the Apple Music charts right away. 

Speaking to People about the album, Beckham revealed that he'd had some concerns about the type of music he would be putting out there, especially after Luke Bryan suggested he try his hand at something more upbeat. "I didn't want to put out a bunch of music that was really depressing and sad, but I also wanted to stay true to myself and the country music that I love," he told the outlet. Ultimately, he and his collaborators on "Doin' It Right" managed to strike the rightbalance, making the album something he truly loved, while staying true to his personal mission: helping others through music. "That's all I care about, because music saved my life in that way," he said.
