Kristy Lee Cook, the Oregon singer currently on tour with her fellow "American Idol" finalists, has signed a deal with 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville. As USA Today reports, Cook's first single is titled "15 Minutes of Shame" (don't suppose that title refers to her notorious rendition of "Eight Days a Week" on "Idol"?).
The single's due out Aug. 11, with an album scheduled to come out in the fall.
Producing the disc is Brett James, who has had success with Cook's fellow country-singing "Idol" veteran, Carrie Underwood -- James co-wrote Underwood's big hit, "Jesus, Take the Wheel."
Sounds promising for Cook. The "American Idols Live" tour comes to Portland's Rose Garden July 11.
