Bio
Danny Gokey is a finalist on the eighth season of American Idol. He has a great voice, but a tragic personal story: Gokey's wife died a few weeks before his initial audition for the series.
All four judges originally approved of Danny moving on to Hollywood, though his best friend Jamar Rogers couldn't make it past the final 54 contestants before getting cut.
Gokey is a Church music teacher from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In addition to singing, he plays the piano and adores salsa dancing.
