The 'American Idol' - Honeymoon Suite Connection

Honeymoon Suite guitarist Derry Grahan has a very talented daughter. Her name is Leah Marlene and she made it through to the Top 24 on American Idol last night.

It is pretty clear that Derry taught his daughter how to play guitar at an early age. She is very good! Of course Honeymoon Suite was mentioned in the package about Leah. Honeymoon Suite is more AOR than Glam but we've talked about them here occasionally. I was mildly amused and wondered how many people had to Google the band after hearing the name mentioned on American Idol. It would be wild to hear Leah sing a Honeymoon Suite song during the competition.

I own the first two Honeymoon Suite records on vinyl, but I did not know Derry had these chops:

Got ‘em both, as well, Gog and Crüed.

Allyson’s idea of Marlene performing a Honeymoon Suite tune would be awesome!

“Feel It Again” would be my choice for her to perform as it’s my personal favorite of all their songs.
