BD: Are there any people in the industry you hope to work with?

DG: Brian McKnight, Lauren Hill, Marc Anthony—those people are probably my top people.

BD: What are you most looking forward to on the American Idol tour this summer?

DG: I love meeting people, and I can't wait to meet the people that I've impacted. Second, I get to be open about my situation I'm sure. I'm hoping between my third and fourth song be able to share with people the experience of losing my wife and what I did to overcome that.
