Last May, Phillip Phillips won the 11th season of American Idol and he’s one of the main draws at Saturday’s No Sno Ball at Mizner Park.

Even if he’s another entry in Idol’s growing list of Twitter hashtag #WGWG winners — that’s White Guys With Guitars — he’s helped keep the franchise far out front of the TV competition in terms of generating relevant talent.

Phillips, 22, follows last year’s champ, Scotty McCreery, who scored platinum in the country field. P-squared could go further. The low-key folkie has already scored the most popular — and best — Top 40 single to come from the Idol camp in years with the infectious double-platinum “Home,” a campfire tune writ large that soared after its use during the London Summer Olympics broadcast of the U.S. female gymnastics team. When was the last time an Idol winner’s coronation song became a legitimate radio and retail hit and a genuinely good song? Try never.

There’s plenty more where “Home” came from on his like-minded debut album, “The World From The Side Of The Moon.” Phillips’ gruff, stiff Georgia drawl and fast-strummed acoustic anthems plug right into the au courant acoustic folk wave led by Mumford & Sons, Jason Mraz and the evergreen Dave Matthews.

Phillips doesn’t distinguish himself too much from his predecessors but his music, like the stomping acoustic arena anthem, “Gone, Gone, Gone,” or the surprisingly funky horn-fueled “Get Up, Get Down,” is just as memorable and immediate.
