After going double platinum with his single “Home,” there’s nothing left to do for American Idol champion Phillip Phillips to do but release a big album— and that’s exactly what he just announced, revealing details of his debut LP The World From The Side Of The Moon. (Wordy title — maybe he’s taking a cue from Fiona Apple‘s The Idler Wheel…)

Penned largely by Phillips himself and produced by Gregg Wattenberg, who worked with Train and O.A.R., expect the album to include Phillips’ new song “Take Me Away” (which he premiered live in Philadelphia in August), as well as his smash single “Home.” World, which is available for pre-order now, hits retailers November 19.
