Since first stepping into the pop spotlight at age 17, David Archuleta has embodied the kind of genuine star power that can't be manufactured. After years of dazzling audiences with his radiant personality and phenomenal voice--a journey that's included turning out multiple platinum-selling hits, achieving global acclaim as a captivating live performer, and emerging as an undeniable fixture on the pop-culture scene--the Miami-born singer/songwriter experienced a major personal transformation that radically altered his identity as an artist. As shown in his singles "Creme Brulee" and "Hell Together," Archuleta has dramatically expanded the landscape of his songwriting and devoted himself to making pop music with equal parts uncompromising emotion and exhilarating impact.
David's performance is from the heart and without flaw. He connects with his music and communicates to the audience like an old pro. I was entertained by a compassionate soul. David should be selling out large arenas. He's a class act and I will jump at the opportunity to see him perform again.
It is hard to put into words an experience like David Archuleta, he is such an incredible muscian and person. I have always loved Christmas music but David took these songs to a different level, and I will be forever grateful to this amazing young man for the experience I had at his concert.
In this day of shock-value choreography, it was especially delightful to see this guy's energy focused on simply presenting an all out great concert. I looked around the beautiful venue to see fans of every age and everyone was fully engaged and enjoying the show. There were a couple of technical sound problems which threw Archuleta off a bit at the beginning of one song, but he laughed it off and very professionally moved right along and ended up blowing us away with that song! This is no longer the nervous "kid" we saw on American Idol... this is a professional musician and extraordinary voice.
This concert far exceeded my expectations. What a surprise. His vocals filled the venue and were both heartfelt and powerful. A wonderful evening for my family. As we were leaving the family was talking about getting chills at moments and tears in their eyes at others. Plus the young man was humble and funny. So glad I went.
David Archuleta's concert was so cool! I loved being there live and hearing him. He was really good live and the Christmas songs were amazing.
Amazing doesn't even begin to describe this concert! There was something for everyone. The younger people totally enjoyed the pop songs in the first half of the concert more, while the older folks loved the Christmas songs more. David has an unbelievable connection to the music he sings & an undeniable connection to the audience. His vocals were flawless and just soared on songs like Ave Maria, Silent Night & O Holy Night. The arrangements on these songs brought out the beauty of his voice with orchestration to match! His duet with his mom on Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas was so emotional & memorable as well. If there's a concert anywhere near you, defintiely get a ticket & GO!!
I attended both Salt Lake City shows. While David's voice may have been stronger on the first night, the second show was the one that stood out for me. Perhaps it's because the audience was a little older and there was much less screaming and a lot more sitting and just enjoying the beautiful music, from Benton Paul's opening all the way through to David's encore performance of "O Holy Night." David seemed a bit more nervous and there were some glitches and a few lyric flubs here and there, but what a beautiful evening it was (and made moreso by the flubs, if you will). Despite the fact that he did struggle now and then, I actually thought his pop songs were more solid on the second night. He sounded especiallly good on "Zero Gravity" and "Crush." I think "Prayer of the Children" was especially gorgeous on night two. I also loved his rendition of "Fields of Gold" because I have always loved Eva Cassidy's version. Beautiful to hear a male voice sing that rendition, very similar to hearing him sing "Imagine." His Christmas set is so diverse that I always struggle to come up with a favorite or favorites. I really enjoy them all for different reasons, but I really love the arrangement and vocals on "The First Noel" and "Silent Night." And it was lovely to hear him and his mom duet on "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." Not perfect, but the best he could give at the time and I so appreciated that. It was easy to receive the gift he gave through his music. I was so glad that I got to attend the second concert. All the screaming and popstar worshipping (that seemed to drown out the music) of the first night left me empty and frustrated. I struggled to enjoy the pure beauty of the music. I was just glad that I got a second chance to really enjoy it with an audience that seemed more focused on the music than the performer.
David's christmas show was very powerful and amazing. The set, the lighting the orchestra and band but mostly THE VOICE, David was perfect all night. I highly recommend this concert and this Christmas CD, it will be a fave for years to come.
This was an amazing concert! David was at the top of his game, strong voice, masterful delivery. I am officially in the Christmas spirit after this event!! He sang a great selection. the orchestra and children's choir added to the show. I was fun to see David 's mom sing with him!
This concert was amazing! I liked it because it wasnt all christmas music; he did do some of his other stuff. He also sang Prayer of the Children which was absolutely unforgetable! one of my favories!!! Over all, he is so sincere and wonderful. Definately worth seeing!
This is a great evening to take the entire family to. His voice is fantastic. The orchestration is superb. Out of this world in everyway.
Awesome concert!! Liked how it was a little more formal so you could definately hear him more
David Archuleta has such an amazing voice! He sounds incredible live and his concert was awesome! I loved his Pop and Christmas songs, but my favorite was when he sang with just a guitar as accompanying him...his voice is so pure and sweet. I love it!!!
I went to both shows in Salt Lake City and i loved both of them. David really puts everything he has into his performance every night. The few pop songs he sings in the beginning are really fun and i liked how he transitioned to the more serious songs. His cover songs were beautifully done. The Christmas set is wonderful. i loved the stage set up and in Utah we got a mini orchestra in addition to the band. We also got a children's choir and Kurt Bestor came out both nights to play piano on Ave Maria. There were a few glitches during the second show but David carries on like a pro. The best part of the night was the duet with his Mom. SO SWEET! i also LOVED Oh Holy Night as the encore. That song done live is so much better than the studio version. Very powerful. I think that besides the duet, the highlight for the first show was Ave Maria and the highlight for the second show was What Child Is This. Pat A Pan is wonderful live as is Riu Riu Chiu and Silent Night. The First Noel sounds exactly like the studio version, which is not a bad thing. Ah, i wish i could go to this show every single night through the holidays! David can make even the most bitter scrooge feel the spirit of Christmas. I have also got to say that i love Benton Paul. I've seen him 6 times live now this year and he's wonderful every time. His rendition of Still Still Still at these Christmas shows brought me to tears.
I am 36 years old and a mother of four. I offered to take my 13yo daughter as a reward and was incredibly impressed with the quality and the caliber of the music that wasplayed. It was seriously that good! I plan on making it an annual event. He has an amazing voice and although his segways between songs were a little 18yo-ish, that is only from his youngness and immaturity in the business. Again, musically it was unforgettable, with the orchestra, the children's choir on Ave Maria, his band. It was great!
First of the all the venue was beautiful. David was so amazing!! The clarity in his voice is unbelievable. You can understand every word he sings and on top of that with so much feeling. An awesome performance. Wished we had gone both nights.
David Archuleta is the best singer of our time. His glorious voice and beautiful spirit made for an amazing, unforgettable night. His pop music is full of fun and energy. The Christmas set was stunning and his voice felt like it was coming directly from heaven.
Best Concert of My Life! David is magical and deserves all the great reviews he is receiving! He will have a long and prosperous career. If that is what he in fact wants.
The show was good, the drums were a little loud and it was hard to hear his voice. His mom was so cute!! Definitely worth seeing.
All I can say is WOW. I was expecting a great show from David (as usual), but this was beyond my expectations. First of all, it was a great balance/mix of both his pop and Christmas music. He added some new material that was awesome... everything was so fresh and unexpected. This concert playlist validates the fact that David can sing anything..and sing it well. He sings with such heartfelt emotion...you can really "connect" and "feel" the music...whether it be slow/reverent or fun/upbeat. Everything about the show was beautiful...i loved it so much that I'm going again tonight.
