More International buzz!

philstar:
MANILA, Philippines - David’s show is presented by Ovation Productions, etc, 2nd Avenue, Talk TV, Diva David Archuleta’s Twitter description, “I’m David. I like music.” is probably the understatement of the century.

As a boy, David says it was Les Miserables that inspired him to begin singing. Some 10 years later, stilljust a boy, he took his singing hobby to the hilt and captivated audiences the world over when he, then at 16, took the American Idol stage and gave his all — landing the runner-up spot in Season 7.

Later the same year, he released a self-titled studio album which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard charts, kicking off with the hit single Crush. This was followed by 2009’s Christmas from the Heart.

Now 20, David is all grown up, not just as a young man but especially as a musician — and he is coming halfway around the world to prove just how much so.

The balladeer is ready to hit Philippine shores once more for a one-night only solo concert on July 18, 8 p.m. at the Araneta Coliseum.

He will be sharing his first love to the Philippines for the third time, after two previous visits in 2009 and 2010. Get ready to hear David’s new songs from his latest album, The Other Side of Down, including the hits Something Bout Love, Elevator and Falling Stars.

David’s show is presented by Ovation Productions, etc, 2nd Avenue, Talk TV, Diva, Basketball TV, Solar, Jack TV, The Philippine Star, Business World, EDSA Shangri-La, Home Radio 97.9, Mellow 94.7, RX 93.1, RJ 100.3 and Optima Sign Solutions.

Malaya:
David Archuleta returns to Manila
David Archuleta’s Twitter description, "I’m David. I like music." is probably the understatement of the century.

As a boy, David says it was "Les Miserables" that inspired him to begin singing.
At 16 years old, he took his singing hobby to the hilt by joining the Idol stage and gave his all–landing the runner-up spot in "American Idol Season 7" back in 2008.

Later the same year, he released a self-titled studio album, which debuted at number 2 on the Billboard charts, kicking off with the hit single "Crush." This was followed by 2009’s "Christmas from the Heart."

Now 20, Archie is all grown up, not just as a young man but especially as a musician–and he is coming halfway around the world to prove just how much so.

The balladeer prepares to visit Philippine shores once more for a one-night only solo concert on July 18, 8 p.m. at the Araneta Coliseum. Joining him is singer Julie Ann San Jose, who will be the front act performer.

David will be sharing his love to the country for the third time, after two previous visits in 2009 and 2010.

I’m not Justin. I Prefer Private Love!

David Archuleta recently left Jive. In spite of the fact that several record companies have shown great interest in him, but he is in no hurry to be tied down again. He says he needs some quality alone time.

After American Idol Season 7, David has been working hard ever since, never has the time to slow down and ponder upon his direction. “I need some time to think what I really want.” says David. In the past, he worked under people’s orders. “I feel confused.” Now without a contract, he finally feels he can cut himself some slack. He can go back to write music when there is no pressure.

When asked if he has already begun creating his own music, David says to compose a song completely on his own is quite difficult for him. But he has a lot of ideas for songs which makes him very excited. He also mentions he will not issue the fourth album this year. If he does publish, it will be singles. He would like to try “natural” music, but not necessarily country. Pop is still his love and he even tries to write a Latin song recently. As to his future direction, David says, “I still love Pop. I actually don’t like my voice. I will focus more on the singing part in the future concerts.” He also expresses his gratitude toward the unwavering support from his fans.

Looking forward to the screaming of Malay fans
How does David feel about Justin Bieber? David says that he met Justin the week before. Justin is very talented, has a good voice and very successful in his singing career. Justin has been very open about his love life recently. When asked if he will be open about his love life too, David says he prefers not to, because he wants to keep that part of his life private. He wishes his fans pay attention to his stage performance only. He also says he’s not seeing anyone for the time being and is still waiting for “the” one.


In 2009, David visited Malaysia the first time, shortly after he finished American Idol. He came to Malaysia to promote his first album. This time he will sing at Staidum Negara at 8:00pm on July 26. This will be a full concert. He is very excited about the concert, looking forward to it, and expects to hear a lot of screaming from his Malay fans. Last time he sang only three songs. In the coming concert, he will of course sing more songs, some new and some old.
