Rocker James Durbin made a real name for himself on Season 10 of American Idol last year, consistently delivering powerhouse performances week in and week out.
Durbin not only stood out because of his talent and dedication, but also because he was essentially the first hard rocker on the reality series to bring heavy metal tunes to the pop-centric series.
Last fall, Durbin released his debut album, “Memories Of A Beautiful Disaster,” and has been playing showcases around the States to build his burgeoning fan base.
Now, word is that James will be returning to Idol for a special performance; he’ll be rocking the weekly results program on Thursday, April 12.
As for the growing support, Durbin announced Wednesday that he has just reached 200,000 fans on Facebook.
