What to Expect from McPhee

01/19/07
. (PR) "Ever since I was on the finale of 'American Idol,' people have been asking me what kind of album I'm going to record," says Katharine McPhee. "When I started working on my debut album, I was asked what types of music I liked. My favorite music is rhythmic pop and I love to dance, so that was our starting point. I was also asked what I wanted to sing about, what subjects I wanted to touch on. So this album really reflects me, a 22-year-old girl who knows what it's like to fall in love and to have her heart broken, and also a girl who likes to have fun and enjoy life!"

The results will be heard on Jan. 30, when Katharine's self-titled album debut is released on RCA Records/19 Recordings. The first single, "Over It," impacted radio on Jan. 15.

McPhee started recording the album as soon as she completed the "American Idols Live" tour in September 2006. "I was sent to Virginia Beach to spend time with Nate 'Danja' Hills, who has worked with Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake and Jennifer Lopez." Hills is nominated for two Grammys this year for his work on Timberlake's "FutureSex/LoveSounds" album.
