The Washington Scene:

The Annual Noche de Gala, sponsored by the National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts, is held at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC on Tuesday, September 13, 2011. "American Idol" contender David Archuleta performed for the guests.

AOL Music:

Singer-songwriter Kina Grannis may just have the best fans ever. During her first show on her very first tour, Grannis' prized family ukulele was stolen from her car. When the singer's fans caught wind of what had happened they began plotting one of the best gifts an artist could ask for.

Kina recently stopped by AOL Music's offices in New York to talk about her latest pop acoustic album 'Stairwells,' why she felt the need to leave the major label world behind, and why her fans make other street teams look bad. Check out the full interview and an exclusive clip of Kina below.

You're in the public eye a lot more. Have any famous musicians asked to collaborate with you?
A couple. One person I've been working with over the past couple years is Daniel Bedingfield, who you might know from many years ago. He had some amazing hit songs. He's been writing a ton since then but has been out of the public eye. We wrote some songs together and collaborated. He is just incredibly talented. And then we actually co-wrote a song with David Archuleta. They are both crazy vocalists. And also, I've gotten to know a lot more musicians through YouTube: really talented, nice, amazing people. 

Billboard:

The final single from Billy Joel's Billboard 200 No. 1 album "Storm Front" was an all-piano ballad pop hit. "And So It Goes," however, just dented the Hot 100's top 40, reaching No. 37 in December 1990. (David Archuleta performed the song on "Idol" in 2008).
