David Archuleta, New Idol Music

New music from David Archuleta coming in August

4

Great news for fans of David Archuelta: The Season 7 runner-up from American Idol is off on his two-year mission trip with the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints, but the new music hasn’t ended.

This morning, his team announced that an album called “Begin” will be released on Aug. 7 in the U.S.  OK, one of my Twitter followers says it’s actually BEGIN. — all caps.

This is the album David had been working on just before leaving for training for his mission. In an earlier video to fans, he said “I’m just going to be doing some good covers that are kind of in tune with where I’m going next in my life.”

Well, it looks like the album will include more than covers. The announcement sales the album will include “a mix of covers and original songs.”

And it comes on the heels of Forevermore, an album of original Filipino love songs that David released in late March.

You won’t find that album on iTunes, but it is available through WowHD and Amazon.

In other news of note, David just passed 1 million followers on Twitter.

Wow. Clearly fans haven’t forgotten even though he’s off on that mission trip.

    We fans are so excited for the new album debuting in Aug 7 here in the states. His Forevermore OPM album is beautiful love songs as only David can sing them. You have to order from WOWHD or Amazon. David takes good care of his fans. I know we have more surprises as time goes by.

    I adore David. He worked so hard to leave new stuff for fans before he started his 2-year church mission. In 10 weeks he was filmed as leading man in the 5-week Philippines mini-series Nandito Ako, recorded his OPM Philippines album Forevermore, then came back to the US and recorded BEGIN. up to the day before his mission started. I really look forward to hearing it. BTW follow his twitter DavidArchie – while he’s away his manager Kari updates it with news, treats and bits from David’s emails. I’ll Be There DA2014
