OMG You guys Im SO SO SOOOO sorry i havent been on! School is REALLY crazy right now for me! Here's David's latest blog!
Hey guys! Hope you guys have been having a good week. This week has been pretty crazy for me! I've been working a lot on the memoir that I've been working on, and it can be pretty challenging since I'm not used to writing and thinking about myself as much as I have to with this book lol. It's really cool though because a lot of the things you may have forgotten about in your past start to come back when you start thinking hard and a lot about events and memories you have back there in your brain that might be a little rusty. They're still there though, you just have to really take some time to ponder haha. It's been challenging with all the other things we've had to do with the project too, but I'm looking forward to seeing how everything comes together at the end and sometimes it's good to challenge yourself farther than you may normally be used to!
Other than the book, I've also been working on some more writing and recording this week. I got to spend more time with Eman this week and I'm really pumped about the song we finished writing! I also recorded another song a few days ago at his studio which I think has a great message to it. I haven't been able to get into music as much this week with all the work I've had to finish with the book, but I'll be kickin' back into gear next week back in LA.
So now I'm back in Miami, and I've had such an awesome experience here! I was able to be a part of the Spanish We Are the World project "Somos El Mundo" and it was really great! Emilio and Gloria Estefan got the project together, and they along with their staff are some of the nicest people you could ever work with. This is the first time they've ever done this song in Spanish, so I'm really glad to have been a part of it with so many talented Latin artists. I love it when people come together to help out, because it really is amazing how much strength comes when people come together. It was neat being able to help in the Hope for Haiti telethon and see how much good came from everyone coming together to unite to help the people in Haiti. There's power in numbers. The damage happened so quickly in Haiti, and now they need to recover from all that has happened there. I was watching the news last night and saw that Kris Allen went out to Haiti to help out. I thought that was so cool. I really look up to him for all that he does for other people. I know that he's done a lot of missionary work in a lot of different places and countries, and I think people should do things like that more. Even if you aren't able to go to a different country, you can still help by sending donations to good causes, or help out the people who may need your help even in your own country, state, or town.
Being at the Somos El Mundo recording yesterday was my first time being around and meeting so many Latin artists. I was pretty nervous with the interviews and being new to that crowd, but it was really fun at the same time and a lot of really nice people. It was good to see PeeWee there, and Ednita Nazario was incredibly nice! Jon Secada, Cristian Castro, Ricardo Montaner, Chayanne, Thalia, and Luis Fonsi were some of the people there. I was like in shock and thought I was going to pass out when I met Luis Fonsi lol. He's such an amazing singer. The video will premiere on Univision March 1st on Cristina. She's a very popular Hispanic talk show host if you aren't familiar with her. She was there yesterday as well, and it was crazy seeing her there because she's just one of those people I never thought I'd get to meet. I remember watching her when I was little. But anyway I've written enough for today, so I will talk to you guys later! Ciao!
Songs for the day:
All You Need Is Love - Brandi Carlile
Brandi Carlile has a new EP out with some covers on it, and she did a great rendition of this Beatles song.

Hello to all of you! Idk if I have anything really exciting to talk about other than I've been keeping busy in the studio this week! I've been recording in LA and Utah this week and it's been quite the work but I'm really excited for it all to come together! I really like airplane rides though because it gives me time to write and get really detailed in my journal haha. Anyway... I know that may have seemed kinda random but I've been on airplanes quite a bit this last week. But I think the Christmas spirit is rubbing off on me because I've never started the Holiday season spirit this early in the year before haha. It feels good though.
So we had our last show for the Summer last week in Alaska, which was bittersweet. It's sad because touring is always fun, but it's nice to be able to work and focus on other projects and stuff. I have to say though.... Alaska was AMAZING!! The mountains were incredible to look at, and it was just beautiful. I loved performing too. I wanna go back now! haha. But it's been good having time to be home for a little and catch up with everyone here! I got to hang out with family and friends, and I made sure I got a good amount of time to have that time with them. It really is important to have those people close to you, and important to spend time with them! It's been nice recording in Utah so I could make that happen.
Well that's basically all I have on my mind right now! I'm sorry it's so short but I hope you guys understand it's hard for me to explain a week where I've spent most of my time inside the studio haha. The Christmas album is almost done though! So crazy! I'm excited to start getting into the next pop album too. But anyway I'm done. There's no reason to keep rambling when I have nothing else to say hehe. But I will talk to you guys later!
Song for the day: Let's Just Fall In Love Again - Jason Castro
I'm so excited to have some Castro music! I love this song! Woo hoo go Jason! haha. You guys should definitely take a listen if you haven't yet!

OF COURSE!!!!!
Hello there to all of you who are reading!
Just another week of updating here. This last week has been pretty interesting since I've had the little challenge of trying to perform even though I was struggling with losing my voice. It's actually been a pretty good learning experience though! I struggled quite a bit the last 3 shows, but what's interesting is that I loved all 3!
Minneapolis, and then 2 solo shows in Sioux Falls and Milwaukee haha. I think it made me appreciate what I've been doing even more, and made me realize the most important thing isn't blasting away at every high note perfectly. There's a lot more to music and performing than that, and I need to remember that there's a connection and feeling in music that doesn't come by hitting each note technically perfect. I guess I just needed to lose my voice to remember that haha. Anyway, I could go on with that but I probably wouldn't make any more sense than what I already said :).
Wednesday we had our acoustic show, and that was really fun! We just did stripped down versions of the songs, and I think it allowed people to focus more on the music side of things rather than just the energy. It was a really laid back mood too, and I felt really comfortable. It's definitely something I'd like to do again!
So my buddy Ashlee has come out for a few days!! It's been fun having a friend here for me (and for everyone else) to hang out with. I had her come on stage the last 2 shows we had in Sioux Falls and Milwaukee to sing for the encore. We sang Lean On Me, which is a song we used to always sing together at home haha. It's good to have friends who are and have been there for you no matter what changes you may be going through, and who still treat you with the same respect that they had before - even when everyone else is treating you differently haha. But it's been great singing that song, and it's a great song that represents a good friendship.
Something that Ashlee, Kendra and I got to go to after the Minneapolis show was the Parachute and The Script concert! Both acts have really great music and are really talented! We got to talk to both bands afterwards, and they were all really nice and cool guys. You never know how people really are until you get to really talk to them and meet them. So when people are genuine and appreciative of what they have even when they're successful, I find them really admirable and have a lot of respect for them. So it's cool to see that and feel that energy from them.
So today is a day off in Nashville, and I had a writing session! One of the writers I worked with today, Joy Williams, actually was one of the writers of Waiting For Yesterday. I've had one of her songs (Every Moment, great song!) as my song for the day before too. The other talented writers were Matt Bronleewe and Andrew Frohm (sp? haha.) But I had a really good time. It's so much fun getting to write and be in the studio! I also did some recording for the Christmas album when I had a day off in Minneapolis. I'm looking forward to doing more writing and recording! I really hope you guys like the Christmas stuff. We've really been working on trying to have the songs be heartfelt and have that spirit of Christmas in them. So I hope you guys like it! Well I have a bunch of people waiting for me to come join them dinner, so I'm gonna eat some food now! So ciao as I chow down haha.
Song for the day: She Is Love - Parachute
