David Archuleta Holds Auditions For New Band

By Michael Lopez

We told you not to worry about David Archuleta. Even though he got the news that Jive Records dropped him last February, the former American Idol star is right back at it, auditioning new musicians to join him for a full-fledged band!

In a recent YouTube video blog, an enthusiastic Archie spoke to fans about his latest undertakings. Though he filmed the vlog from his home base in Utah, David explained how he had been spending time in L.A. meeting with drummers, keyboardists, and guitarists for an upcoming musical project.

He also posted an accompanying blog with the clip.

“Letting you guys know about the band auditions and meetings that have been going on aside from the NASCAR and blimp rides while in LA haha. Been keeping busy with that but really looking forward to how it’s going to come about. Can’t wait to get everything set up and to start performing again!”

David also brought up more Spanish news, greeting fans with a “Buenos Días.” He confessed that he’s currently trying to learn multiple languages and broaden his horizons as an artist. Archie even did some impromptu piano playing, though nothing with a Latin rhythm…just yet.
