Amidst the hundreds of R&B hopefuls that “American Idol” seems to produce every season—many of whom are more prone to howling than singing—the show has proven it can unearth a few gems as well. In Season 7, that gem was Brooke White, who, although placing fifth in the overall competition, brought new life to the show with her folksy yet sophisticated vocals and self-accompaniment.
