Where Is Megan Danielle From American Idol

Singer Megan Danielle said fans didn’t get to see the complete picture of her during her time on “American Idol.”

She’s determined to make that clear during her concert dates with fellow “American Idol” alum Maddie Poppe.

The two play at the Musical Instrument Museum on Friday, Aug. 25, and 191 Toole in Tucson on Saturday, Aug. 26. Danielle said it’s a great bill, their second tour together.

“I love her,” she said about Poppe. “I watched her when she was on ‘Idol.’ She’s such a genuine, sweet person. Her whole team is great.”

In between songs — and within her tunes — Danielle will share her faith.

“I just wanted to be myself and let the world know about God,” she said about her time post-“Idol.” “If they don’t know about Him, they do now.”

Among the songs on her set list is “Dream Girl,” her first post-“American Idol” single.

“It’s just amazing,” she said about the song. “It just talks about how the world can be so cruel sometimes. It really impacts your decisions about the dreams you want. It’s a reminder that every little girl can dream big and keep going no matter what. It’s just special.”

She has a collection of unreleased music, and “I just want to show myself as an artist and person,” she said. “I’m in the studio as much as I can. I’m writing a lot and hoping to release an EP, just to get something out there.”

A Douglasville, Georgia, native, Danielle hails from a close family of two sisters and a brother. Together, they watched their grandpa and uncles at the racetrack and played ball and cornhole.

“I am really big on family,” she said. “We are all so close and do just about everything together. My grandparents mean everything to me; they have always been there. I lost my grandpa about two years ago and miss him greatly. He really influenced me to become a better version of myself and pursue music.”

She didn’t connect with her faith until she was 18 and started to attend church regularly. Music has always been a strong presence in her life.

“Since I was a little girl, I have always enjoyed listening to music and singing along to anything I’d hear,” Danielle said.

“I was always so shy to pursue it, but eventually around the age of 15, I booked my own show at a restaurant in Douglasville. Then, at the age of 18, I was singing anywhere I could. … In bars, venues and any place that would have me. I always knew I wasn’t living up to my full potential and then one night at a show, my grandpa really influenced me to follow my calling. It was at that time, ironically, I quit performing altogether to learn more about myself, about God and what plans He had for my life.”

A year and a half ago, an “American Idol” producer messaged Danielle on Instagram asking if she’d want to audition. Initially hesitant, she mustered the courage to do it and placed second.

Fans watched her confidence grow during the ABC competition show.

“I went into the competition very doubtful,” she said.

“I didn’t think I’d make it on season 21. It helped me grow a lot and see how I am. I’m just grateful for it. I learned to really just trust myself and be myself.

“To be the runner-up is still surprising to me. I’ve taken the time to realize this is a big accomplishment. I’m proud of myself.”
