Jan 01 Danny Gokey

Part of the Lightning Concert Series presented by Volkswagen.

Saturday, January 1st following the Lightning vs. New York Rangers Game – the concert is free with the purchase of a game ticket.

From his days of long hours as a truck driver to his third place finish on Season 8 of American Idol, Danny Gokey has always been a student of life. With an artist’s eye for detail and an inquisitive spirit eager to learn from every situation, Gokey has soaked up more life experience than most people twice his age. From the joyful to the heartbreaking, those experiences infuse Gokey’s 19 Recordings/RCA Nashville debut, My Best Days, a collection of songs that resonate with honest emotion and tap into the collective hopes and dreams that define life.

Poignant, rowdy, thought-provoking and smile-inducing — Danny Gokey’s debut album is all those things and so much more. It’s a reflection of life’s peaks and valleys from a young man well acquainted with both. “I’m very proud of this CD. Every song has something to say,” he relates. “We’re all human, and human beings are made up of so many different aspects. We want to be entertained, but we also want to be inspired, and music is a universal language.”
