Ben Briley quickly became a fan favorite on American Idol this season during rush week when the judges couldn’t decide between him and Neco Starr to advance to the top 13. They put the decision in America’s hands, and Briley was voted to move forward. From his southern drawl to his love for everything Tennessee, he might seem like the token country singer, but one look at the 24 -year-old’s YouTube channel, and you’ll quickly learn that he enjoys music ranging from John Mayer to James Taylor.
