No time to be idle for these two

The confetti has been swept away, but “American Idol” winner Lee DeWyze and runner-up Crystal Bowersox are just getting started.

Bowersox says she foresees a future that includes music, drama and diabetes advocacy, adding that she’d love to work with fellow diabetic Bret Michaels.

The single mom is meeting with record executives this week to discuss her musical future.

Discussions for DeWyze’s debut album have already begun. The former paint store clerk says that he’ll have a lot of say in the sound and will also be writing new tracks for the record.

Expect “a folk/rock/alternative vibe,” he says: “I want it to be very earthy. … I’m looking to make an album that can really speak to everybody, good stories and good music to back it up, because that’s the kind of stuff I like to listen to.”

Both will be recording their albums while traveling the country on the “American Idols Live! Tour,” which begins July 1.

Bowersox, who scored an “Idol” first when she played her original song “Holy Toledo” on a recent episode, is excited to play it again when she performs in her hometown of Toledo, Ohio.

She also hopes to write new music for her album and collaborate with some of her heroes, including Melissa Etheridge, Ray LaMontagne and Leslie Feist.

Bowersox is also interested in acting. “Drama was my first love, actually, before music,” she says.
