Bo Bice Updates- March 15th

Bo Bice and Wife Caroline Expecting a Second Child
"Former American Idol runner-up Bo Bice and his wife, Caroline Fisher, are expecting their second child, the singer tells PEOPLE exclusively.
“I’m proud to be a dad again,” says Bice, adding that his wife is due in August. “We don’t know if it’s a boy or girl yet and don’t care as long as it’s healthy and has all its fingers and toes.”"

"Aidan has helped me to grow and be a better person in the past 2 ½ years. I've let go of a lot of things in life that I thought were important since he came into our world, he also teaches me each day to be more loving, understanding and patient."

Billboard.com catches up with Bo
"BO BICE: The fourth season runner-up is promoting his second album, "See the Light." Released on an independent label and available exclusively through Walmart, the CD returns Bice to his southern rocker roots.
But the album is not the only thing occupying Bice's time. "I went over to Afghanistan for 12 days with the non-profit organization Stars for Stripes." Bice performed for U.S. troops stationed in that country. He was hitting the road again after his "American Idol Extra" taping. "We're heading to Texas and Missouri, Atlantic City, New York, Pennsylvania. I'm doing some charity events for NASCAR and this summer I'm going to visit the kids at 'Idol' Camp."
The two-week session is for children aged 10-15 who get an introduction to the music industry from visiting professionals and former Idols."

BART WALKER MYSPACE
Bart started honing in on his guitar skills at the ripe age of four. Along the way, he became an accomplished musician in a variety of instruments including the mandolin, banjo, dobro, bass, saxophone, fiddle and drums. His accomplishments include winning a variety of bluegrass competitions in his youth, a full scholarship from Vanderbilt’s Blair School of Music to study voice in high school, being chosen as a vocalist in the Governors School for the Arts, as well as being selected by a Tennessee panel of judges for excellence for jazz band. After graduating high school, he was recruited into the army national guard as a musician. He attended Austin Peay State University on a full scholarship where his concentration was vocal performance and string bass majors and minors in guitar performance and composition. After college, he moved to Memphis to pursue his dreams of playing the blues. While in Memphis, he became a known name and played for the likes of Ruby Wilson and Preston Shannon. He later on formed a band called Five Mississippi playing all over Beale Street, as well as other parts of Memphis, and as far south as Tunica, Clarksdale and Oxford Mississippi. He returned to Nashville in 2005 with a new feel for the blues, where he has played many studio sessions and various clubs. In addition to his current role as lead guitarist for B.B. King’s House Rockers at B.B. King’s Blues Club, he has also chalked up countless hours in the studio.
