Caleb Perry Johnson (born April 23, 1991) is an American singer who won the thirteenth season of American Idol.

Early life

Caleb Johnson was born on April 23, 1991 to David and Tamra Johnson in Asheville, North Carolina.[1][1] His mother works as an accountant, his father is a former football coach and works for the Parks and Recreation Department of Buncombe County, North Carolina, but both have backgrounds in music.[2][3][4][5] He attended Clyde A. Erwin High School in Asheville and graduated in 2009.[6] He played some sports in high school, joined the drama club and chorus, and did some mission work and some volunteering at his church, Calvary Baptist.[7]

Johnson became interested in singing around age 17 when Josh Sawyer, who had a band in his high school, asked him to be the lead singer. The first song he performed in public in his high school was "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival.[8] He took part in a talent show while in high school with a band called Gorgon.[9] He considers Chris Cornell to be his biggest musical influence, and that Rush is his favorite band.[10][11][12][13]

Music career

2010: Elijah Hooker

After graduating Erwin High School in Asheville, North Carolina, on June 30, 2009, Caleb Johnson first joined a band called Rock Bottom as its lead singer.[7] A year later, he joined his friend Josh Sawyer in rock band called Elijah Hooker and became its lead vocalist.[14] Sawyer is the lead guitarist of the band; the other members of the band included Brian Turner on Keyboard, Shawn Foerst on bass, and Colten Emery on drums.[15][18]

Elijah Hooker released its self-titled debut album Elijah Hooker in June 2013. The 10-track album featured "Happiest Man" as its lead track.[16]

2011-14: American Idol

Johnson auditioned for American Idol three times in four years. He first auditioned for the tenth season of American Idol in 2011. He was put through to Hollywood Week and was in a Hollywood group with James Durbin. In 2012, Johnson auditioned for the eleventh season and made it to the Top 42. He had difficulties in his performance of "Old Time Rock and Roll" and was cut at the Top 24 selection. He took the following year off from auditioning to improve on his stage presence.[17]

Johnson auditioned again in 2014 for the thirteenth season and made it to the top 20. In the semifinal round, he was voted by America into the top five male contestants, giving him a spot in the season's top 13. Johnson got positive feedback from the judges every week, had strong performances, and became the only finalist in the season to never land in the bottom 3 prior to reaching the finale. That season, Johnson was declared the winner.
