Best known as a contestant on the third season of Fox's #American Idol, vocalist Jon Peter Lewis became recognized as much for his impressive vocal range as his goofy personality. Born in 1979 in Lincoln, NE, Lewis was raised in a military family and credits his background for giving him a competitive personality. Interestingly, his father was also a member of the '60s garage-surf band the Marketts. In 2004, Lewis auditioned for #Idol in Hawaii and ultimately made it to the Top Ten -- ultimately being voted out a few weeks later after a performance of the Elvis Presley classic "Jailhouse Rock." However, as a member of the #AmIdol Top Ten, Lewis was included on the show tour and developed a strong fan following.
