David Archuleta is the self-titled debut album of American Idol season 7 runner-up David Archuleta. It was released on November 2008, via Jive Records.
This album includes a sequence of Pop tracks from the industry’s most talented writers and producers.

His voice sounds incredible is so touching and absolutely wonderful, and the fact that he brings his talent in and co-writes some of these makes it even more phenomenal.
If for some reason he didn’t impress you on American Idol listen to him now! This is a fantastic pop album, we highly recommend it.

Overall this is an excellent first effort and we are looking forward to hearing more from him in the future.
