American Idol 12 Chicago contestant, Kez Ban intrigued Idol fans with her quirky style and obvious songwriting skills. By special request, she uploaded a full performance of “Azure Sky”, the tune she impressed the judges with. Check out her You Tube channel HERE.

Here’s another fantastic tune titled “Raise the Wager”. So talented!. Not the kind of contestant who will ever get far on American Idol, but at least she’s been given the opportunity to showcase her talent on a national platform.

Here’s the singer’s audition and Road to Hollywood interview.

Audition

Road to Hollywood

    I’ve been avoiding threads labelled as spoilers or those showcasing individual AI contestants.  Saw the initial episodes of AI 12, so thought it was safe to listen to this song, as I enjoyed Kez Ban’s audition.  She actually does have a few things in common with P2 — not the strongest singer in terms of range, but with a known musical identity (which we have seen with Scotty and P2 is a plus).

    Guess I need an MJ blackout during the Idol season if I want to avoid spoilers . . .  :-(

    Oy, another consoiracy theory. I don’t believe for a minute that the contestants are told who to say they like from Idol.

    I like her and agree with her, it’s time to see something a little different on the show.

    Had or has? She’s not gone yet! :)

    She was a pleasant surprise to me.

    Yes, I like her vibe. She seems interesting, and would be a nice addition to the live shows.

    This is the most AMAZING and exciting singer / artist I’ve heard in ages and I would buy her music in a heartbeat.  I got major chills knowing I was watching a future SUPERSTAR.

    Best to audition TO DATE!  I hope like hell she makes it past all the ‘Hollywood Week’ permutations to actually get on the show.  Lord knows they need someone exciting and authentic like this to give the show some sort of credence.
