Inside Luke Bryan's New 'American Idol' Role

Read Time:35 Second

American Idol is making a comeback this spring on ABC! My favorite part of the series is getting to see artists grow as performers.

Luke Bryan is on the judging panel this season, and he is traveling across the country to find America’s next big star. In this week’s Radio Disney Country Close Up, he told me what he admires most about working with Lionel Richie and Katy Perry.

“It’s just their professionalism… they inspire you to show up ready to go — in which I do, too,” Luke said. “I come in ready to rock.”

During our interview, Luke also talked about what it takes to launch a successful career in the music industry. – Gabe
