Before winning the renowned music show American Idol and becoming a recognized star, Chayce Beckham worked as a heavy machinery operator. Still, he always had a soft spot for music.

Many artists, including Chayce Beckham, get their start on singing reality shows.
Beckham's first audition for the reality show American Idol went incredibly well. His unique voice and talent blew the judges away as he performed “What Brings Life Also Kills” by Kolton Moore and The Clever Few.
From the beginning, Chayce's journey through the show has been smooth and filled with positive encouragement and support.
“You sound like the heart of America”; “Chayce, you showed us another level that we did not know out of you, but you need to start leaning on that. If you learn how to channel that rasp and grip, you could be in the top 10”; these were just a few of the many comments the winner of American Idol season 19 gathered throughout the competition.[2]
After many songs, mainly from the country and pop rock genres, Chayce made it to the finale, where he sang his original song 23, and won. Besides receiving the title winner of American Idol, Beckham also got the title of the first competitor to win with an original piece.[3]
Alongside in the grand finale were fellow competitors Grace Kinstler and Willie Spence.
A few of his most impressive performances include “You Should Probably Leave” by Chris Stapleton, “Baby Mine” by Betty Noyes, and “Mama”.
After winning the show, Beckham released the song “Can’t Do Without Me”. In 2022, his single “Tell Me Twice” also came out.
Another accomplishment a year after the show is his debut mini album Doin’ It Right.
His latest single is named “Keeping me up all night,” rolled on August 18, 2022.
