David Archuleta Solo Concert @ TheGrove

American pop singer-songwriter, David Archuleta, will be returning to the Grove of Anaheim on Wednesday, December 29.

David Archuleta won the hearts of America after his second place finish on the seventh season of American Idol. As one of the youngest contestants to appear on the show, he enjoyed instant fame and success. In August of 2008, David Archuleta released his first single “Crush”. His self-titled debut album reached number two on the Billboard 200 chart. His recently released second album, The Other Side of Down, features hits such as, “Elevator” and “Falling Stars.”

His angelic voice and inspiring song lyrics make David Archuleta one of the most popular pop singers of his time. Along with being a profound role model in today’s society, he also released “Christmas from the Heart” which debuted at number two on the seasonal chart behind Bob Dylan.

With inspiration from his Latin-influenced childhood along with his appreciation for gospel, pop, rock and soul, David Archuleta is a dynamic artist who appeals to a wide variety of audiences.”

Popular TV personality Nancy O’Dell will countdown to the New Year as the host of FOX’s “New Year’s Eve Live,” featuring chart-topping musical guests.“It’ll be the first New Year’s Eve that I’ve actually stayed awake in quite a while because I’ve always had to be up so early for the [Tournament of Roses] parade that I’ve hosted for the past 10 years,” Nancy tells ET at her photo shoot for the special.Nancy will ring in the New Year from the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas — and Times Square in New York City as the world-famous New Year’s Eve Ball makes its descent. Musical guests include former “American Idol” runner-up David Archuleta, Travie McCoy, pop/rock group Plain White T’s, dance crew Jabbawockeez, and will also feature the broadcast premiere of Mariah Carey’s music video of the New Year’s classic, “Auld Lang Syne,” from her new album, Merry Christmas II You.“It feels really special to be ringing in 2011 because it seems like such a new road that I’m going down career-wise,” Nancy says. “It just feels like a new life, so to speak, because I’m doing all these new things.”

In addition to hosting “New Year’s Eve Live,” Nancy’s new things include starting her new gig as a correspondent for “Entertainment Tonight” on January 3 and fronting “Your OWN Show: Oprah’s Search for the Next TV Star” on Oprah Winfrey’s new network, along with Carson Kressley.

With everything that is happening for Nancy, she says she will still make a New Year’s resolution, but it is the same one that she makes every year.

“Mine, and I think that it actually lends to a much more healthy life than going with some diet or something, is to say, ‘I’m going to look at everything as the glass half full, not half empty.’ So positivity is just something that I tell myself at the end of every year.”

“New Year’s Eve Live” airs Friday, Dec. 31 at 11 p.m. on FOX.

NYE REVIEWS ON THE GO

Biggest surprises of the night? Mariah Carey, for obvious reasons and David Archuleta who gave the best performance of the night.
– @KelvinRog (Kelvin Rogers)

@DavidArchie Awesome job last nite! I have no idea how you sounded that great and looked so comfy in the cold. Bravo!
– @jambajim

While Avril Lavigne was rocking to her new single What The Hell at Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve, David Archuleta was jamming to two songs from his latest sophomore pop album The Other Side of Down which saw the youngster brave the cold and deliver two energetic performances of the title track and Elevator which you can check above and below respectively. One thing about Archuleta, is that he’s always a fantastic singer and this was no exception.
– Music Review 10

David Archuleta took the stage on FOX’s New Year’s Eve Live to ring in 2011 with a pair of performances, including the title track, from his latest album The Other Side Of Down. David braved the cold & delivered two great vocal showings!
–Bring the Beat Back

Travie McCoy and David Archuleta stole the show on Nancy O’Dell‘s NYE special. Stay tuned for Travie’s video. Until then, check out former American Idol contestant David Archuleta’s performance of “Elevator”.
–92.3 Now

Friday night on one of the coldest New Year’s Eve on record, David Archuleta took to the microphone to perform ‘Elevator.’ The American Idol runner up was performing live for a medium size crowd in Las Vegas as well as a national audience watching on Fox.

The performance, perhaps not the best of Archuleta’s had to be hard to make perfect. Seeing how cold it was at the venue and having the audience continuously screaming over the entertainer had to a major distraction and little could be done by the entertainer.

As FOX is trying to compete with some of the bigger New Year’s Eve shows, they have a long way to go before anyone will be taking them seriously. As for David Archuleta, he is a casualty of bad stage issues that needed to be fixed before he hit the stage to perform.

Check out David Archuleta’s performance from Friday night on the video clip. It is a good song, good vocals but terrible equipment issues.
– Examiner

David Archuleta spent the last few minutes of 2010 on stage performing for a packed crowd of party people at Fox’s New Year’s Eve Live bash.

Archie took the stage to perform the title track from his sophomore album, The Other Side Of Down. It was great to see Archie up on his feet and having a total ball on stage.

David also got the chance to close out the evening with a performance of Elevators. There were some minor vocal hiccups here and there but let’s be honest, a “bad” performance from David still slays 95% of other artists on their best days.
– NeonLimelight

I missed this one on New Year’s because I was watching ABC for their lineup, however one of my personal pop fave’s, David Archuleta, performed two songs from his latest album The Other Side of Down to help Fox ring in the New Year in Las Vegas. Unfortunately Archie is another underrated pop artist; his albums have both featured solid offerings in terms of radio-ready pop song construction. His choruses are as sweet as he is, and he could sell a record on his charm alone, though that voice is certainly a great bonus. David performed the title track, as well as ‘Elevator;’ I love both of these songs and David did really great, so check out the performances in case you missed them!
– Pop Boi

Being the nerd that I am, I DVR’d three different New Year’s Eve specials to make sure I didn’t miss any music performances, and a surprise favorite of mine was David Archuleta’s performance on FOX’s New Year’s Eve Live of “The Other Side of Down.”

It was the first time I had heard the song ever, and it’s pretty dang catchy! I really enjoyed watching Archie just own the stage. He has definitely come a long way since his Idol days. I definitely want to check out his live show the next time he rolls into town.
