He seems to have vanished. I was sure he was going to be the next Elvis.

Life after Idol
Hicks played harmonica on every date of the American Idols Live! tourHicks signed a recording contract with Arista Records in conjunction with 19 Recordings Unlimited, the label managed by AI creator Simon Fuller, in May 2006. Hicks's debut single "Do I Make You Proud" debuted on the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and was subsequently certified gold by the RIAA.
Hicks made guest appearances in concerts by Snoop Dogg, the Allman Brothers, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Widespread Panic, and Willie Nelson. Hicks also joined his fellow Top 10 Idol finalists on the American Idols LIVE! Tour which ran from July-September. The members of the former Taylor Hicks Band regrouped as the Little Memphis Blues Orchestra and shadowed the Idols' tour route, with Hicks occasionally appearing as a "special guest" when circumstances permitted, and was even accompanied at times by the other Idols, such as Yamin, McPhee, Chris Daughtry, Ace Young, and Bucky Covington.
In August, it was announced that Hicks received a $750,000 (USD) deal to write a memoir of his life, which is expected to be released in spring 2007 by Random House. [23] The book will be ghostwritten by Rolling Stone writer David Wild. In the same month, Hicks's lawyers sued a producer with whom he worked in Nashville in 2001 for redistributing copyrighted songs from 1997 without permission. The charges were dropped when the masters were handed over to Hicks.[24]
[edit] 2006-2007: Taylor Hicks
Studio recording sessions ran in Los Angeles between October and November, taking six weeks in total. [25] At the same time, videos of Hicks's rehearsals started to be released weekly on Rehearsals.com, as part of promotion for his upcoming album with Arista. The eponymous major label debut Taylor Hicks suffered release date delays until the December 12 date was set.

His CD was released earlier this summer and he's been on the American Idol tour also. I'm pretty shure that's finished now though. I heard he's been doing some concerts in the South and that his next CD will be out late 2007.
