I think all the small newsflashes, tweets and quotes about David’s songwriting sessions are really exciting! As a result I’m pretty pumped up about his next pop album 🙂
Interview with David Burger
I just got off the phone with David Archuleta, who will perform at Abravanel Hall in Utah on Nov. 24 and Nov. 25.
I will wait to write the article until next week, with the hopes of having it published here and in print on Nov. 15 or so.
But here are a few tidbits from Utah’s favorite son. (Sorry, Donny. Maybe if you win “Dancing With the Stars,” but not until then.)
David, who is learning guitar to go along with piano, is spending all this week and next week writing songs with producers as he works on an album with an unknown release date. He spent some time in Nashville several weeks ago and also wrote while he was there. “I’m learning how to become a songwriter,” he said.
He has goals for his next album, though. “I just want my personality to come out,” he said. “I want this music to have some character — my character. I want my stories to be in here.”
As for Halloween, he didn’t dress up. He was stuck on the tarmac with Demi Lovato for more than three hours. But don’t fret — he isn’t dating Demi. They were just going to Atlantic City to make-up some dates that they missed on their summer tour together. He’s still single.
I’ll write much more when it comes time to write the story, where he answered many of his fans’ questions that I submitted to him. I appreciate the questions people sent.
At AAM we usually reserve all the accolades and praise for a remarkable young man by the name of David Archuleta who in a short time has managed to beguile us with his heart and soul. But now it’s time for the fans to bask in the limelight and soak in the acclaim for all the love and support that you have showered David. We at AAM would like to convey our heartiest cheers and gratitude to all you wonderful fans for your generous and heartfelt support for David’s Christmas CD.
