Mark and Katie had the pleasure of speaking with Idol\u2019s pot of gold, Damien Leith, winner of Season 4. Since winning Idol, Damien has released nine studio albums, four of which hit the top two of the ARIA charts.\xa0
Upon winning the show, Leith signed a contract with Sony BMG and his debut album The Winner\u2019s Journey broke records, becoming certified platinum four times. However, Damien barely saw a cent from this album as it was completely owned by Fremantle. Damien talks about the anguish he experienced in coming to terms with this. He now lives in the country town of Scone in NSW doing breakfast radio and being a dad. He\u2019s also working on a feature film inspired by living in the Hunter region.\xa0
