American Idol's Colton Dixon has announced the April 28th release of his 7-song EP, CANVAS. CANVAS and My Light follow the biggest song of Dixon's career to-date Build A Boat, which, at 10 weeks became the longest running No. 1 Mediabase Christian AC song of 2022, also spawning Build A Boat (feat. Gabby Barrett), with MULTI-PLATINUM and award-winning Country star Gabby Barrett. Over the last couple of years, we've all been in a dark place, he admits. It was like, 'Man, I'm not sure if the world will come back'. In my case, I didn't know if I'd ever tour again. The twins were born in the same year I lost my main source of income-which is touring. It was scary. If I've ever been afraid, I know there's someone who loves me and will guide me through God is my light, but we all can relate to people in our lives that help strengthen us as well and keep us going. It's such a fun song but it's message is what I love most about it. In addition to My Light and both versions of Build A Boat, CANVAS features four other tunes including the anthemic Giants, written and produced by Grammy-nominee Joe London (Jason Derulo, Lizzo, Thomas Rhett), the piano-driven Hold Onto Hope, a fire-filled vocal performance on Unbreakable, and the delicate title-track, Canvas.
