Clark Beckham (born May 15, 1992)[citation needed] is an American singer, songwriter and musician.
[1] In a Christian Post interview Beckham noted that he originally wanted to audition for American Idol at 18 years old, when it came to Nashville, but said that it was not in line with God's will at the time.
He passed the audition by a split decision: approved by Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban, disapproved by Harry Connick Jr. During Hollywood week, he sang "Let's Get It On" and "Try a Little Tenderness".
In the House of Blues showcase, he sang "Georgia on My Mind", earning his spot in the Top 24.
"[3] Beckham has been using his post-Idol expertise in the creation of a YouTube video channel about American Idol.
