Heather Cox

Heather Cox, a pastor's daughter and top finalist on American Idol, draws a crowd by singing her heart out, then keeps them by sharing how a strong faith can help you exhibit grace under adversity, no matter how intense the pressure to perform. Her familiar face and contemporary experience tells a story of a God who renders His helping hand when we need it the most, along with our responsibility in return to bring praise, honor and glory to God in everything we do.

Heather grew up in a musical family in rural North Carolina. With one test of faith after another during her senior year of high school, Heather Cox never permitted any obstacle to break down her long-cherished relationship with the Lord.  In November 2001, she was devastated when she lost her best friend in a fatal car accident.  The pain of the experience did not travel alone—she had her own brush with death in a crash only two months prior.  Her unwavering faith throughout her suffering inspires and directs all kinds of people at all levels of faith.

In 2005, Heather auditioned for American Idol where she subsequently made her way into the semi-finals.  Having gained considerable experience and exposure from appearing on national television, she is now in the pursuit of establishing a solo singing career.  She is currently recording her debut pop-country album in Nashville with hopes of releasing it to the public within the year. Heather’s recognizable name and approachability makes her an ideal choice for outreach to your community.
