David Archuleta announces a Christmas tour
David Archuleta is about to go on tour again, and this time he promises “a different kind of feel.”
After all, it’ll be a Christmas tour of sorts. Not entirely Christmas music, David points out in a video blog posted today. He’ll be mixing in some of his own music as well.
But concert-goers are sure to hear some of the classic songs from his Christmas CD which, by the way, hits stores tomorrow (Tuesday, Oct. 13).
And the tour is headed this way. It includes dates at the Lyric Opera House in Baltimore on Tuesday, Dec. 15, and at the Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg, Pa., on Friday, Dec. 18.
Tickets go on sale Oct. 24 for the Baltimore show, according to David’s Web site. The announcement is so new that the Lyric hasn’t added the show to its calendar yet. Here’s a link to the Web site, where ticket information should be posted soon.
Tickets for the show in Stroudsburg (about 2 1/2 hours from York) start at $30 and go on sale to members starting tomorrow and to the general public at noon Oct. 26. Go here for information.
It’s been a busy year for David. He did a solo tour (including an appearance in Lancaster) in the spring; then toured with Demi Lovato over the summer.
But it sounds like he’s anxious to hit the road again.
“I miss touring already,” he says in today’s video blog, filmed in Nashville, where he’s working on music for pop album number two. “It’s been a fun year, getting out on tour.”
The Christmas tour kicks off Nov. 24 and continues through Dec. 20. Here’s a link to a complete list of dates.

There is nothing more fun than a David Archuleta concert tour show! Can’t wait to get and hear David’s Christmas From the Heart album being released tomorrow (Oct 13). I’m already seeing 3-4 shows I can attend! David is such a talented singer / songwriter. Not only has David just finished his holiday album, then touring, he is also working on a second pop album to be released next year. He is always so busy…but takes time out for his fans with tweets, blogs and vblogs. He sent out all kinds of messages today to let everyone know about his Christmas album…we/his fans are so excited for him and the album release!

Late tonight I know where I’ll be - impatiently waiting for the BUY button to light up on the download version at Amazon! And I have a CD ordered too. And David’s album will be released in a bunch of countries Oct 13 through the end October. I can’t wait to hear it and tweet some sweet thanks to @DavidArchie. I love being a fan of David’s and I’m really excited about attending one of the concerts. I hope there will be some presale codes because these venues will fill up fast! Ahhhh.

Ya! Just listened to the whole track on AOL.com and this album is a masterpiece. The arrangements, the orchestration, the vocals of David, all are so over the top! I was in shock for about the whole night after listening to it. I couldn’t believe that the producers and all put so so much into this. It really is worthy of anyone’s listen! David has every reason to be jumping out of his skin with excitement for this release! It is phenomonal! I dare to say the best Christmas album ever by any artist since the originals!

I just picked up my Christmas from the Heart album today and David Archuleta just proves again how amazing his voice is. This is first time I’ve been excited about Christmas in October. Thanks for the article and I’m hoping to attend a couple of the new tour shows! There is nothing more fun and exciting than seeing David perform on stage! He is AWESOME!
