It is often cited as the world’s leading talent agency[1] and its clients include George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Brad Pitt, Lebron James, Sandra Bullock, Oprah Winfrey, Julia Roberts, Steven Spielberg, Will Smith, and Reese Witherspoon…
Could it be?

DA comes around 1:32 mark
I LOVE HUGEFAN’s DAD!
JR -- CAA has always been David’s Agency (where his agent is) -- we dealt with them back when we were trying to put together a Christmas bash for all the fan sites in 2009, so I don’t think that has changed.
Aww -- Hugefan’s dad is a huge fan, too! That is so cool!
{A&E} My Afternoon with David Archuleta by Ashley Jones
(pix posted in this thread’s article)
How many of you have heard a song by David Archuleta? How many of you have seen David Archuleta perform live? I don’t know which word describes him better: darling or adorable. He fits both.
This past weekend, I got to spend a couple of hours with David (my coworkers and I call him Davie) at the BYU Book Festival on BYU’s campus. David was invited to be interviewed live on the importance of books and reading in his life. He spoke in front of a crowd of 100 or so and couldn’t have been more genuine. He mentioned in passing that one of his favorite books is The Alchemist, which I thought was very interesting. (Librarians: you might want to have a couple extra copies of The Alchemist on file—you’re going to have a large group of 14-year-old girls coming your way.)
After his interview, David made his way inside (yes, past the screaming girls) to the bookstore where he was signing his book and CDs. He’s 20 and he’s already written a book. Amazing. During the signing, my job was to walk through the line and write “To:” names on yellow sticky notes so David wouldn’t have to ask how to spell the names. I had an absolute blast. I’ve never written so many girls names in the space of two hours. But you want to know what the best part was? Crouching down (I’m 5’10”) and asking the little girls if they were excited to see David, and take a picture of him. Oh heavens, I wish I could have recorded some of their reactions—totally priceless. There was one little girl—Hannah, nine years old with a mouthful of braces -who, out of excitement, couldn’t have smiled any bigger. I melted. I watched Hannah go through the line and get an individual picture with David where he put his arm around her shoulder. I think her smile is now permanent.
Major props to David Archuleta for being such a great “crush” for nine-year-old girls. He’s got some adorable fans from Provo, UT.

I dunno whether to be amused or be irritated that David seems to be treated/regarded as the boy who never grew up in his own turf (shakes head)

David just seems to make friends everywhere he goes. Who could not like someone so genuine and open and kind? And we all know he can be extremely funny in that dry way he has. I really like that he is hanging with the Nashville crowd as they seem to have their feet on the ground much more so than the west coasters…just my observation, no offense intended 🙂
I have this theory, based on absolutely no facts, that ‘real’ artists recognize the genius in others’ work quickly. I think these artists are the people to meet, rather than the ‘movers and pushers’ of the industry. As they realize David’s talents things will come to him. The fact he’s such a pleasure to hang with will only help, as you noted Marlie. JR, thanks for the ever expanding music library of DA!
Ashley interviews Ben Shepherd. I’m still impressed with his bass solo and the joy he had performing it.

Ran into David Archuleta (@DavidArchie) walking around #Bonnaroo. He’s excited for Ray LaMontagne, Florence, Decemberists. -@jasonlipshutz
Glad that David is spending time with family. But what is a bonnaroo? Check it out here -- http://www.bonnaroo.com/
So it’s like Woodstock in Nashville 🙂 I can imagine that this is something he & his family would enjoy together. So cool
Portia -- I definitely agree w/ your theory about “real artists recognizing the genius in others”
I found this quote from a certain D.A. Hickman
“A desire to share creative expression with others and to find peace, joy, and perspective in mining the depths of
my internal world … makes me an artist.”
ties in very well with your theory.
Nashville indeed becomes David.For some reason am always at peace, as a fan, knowing that he is there
I think it is appropriate that we add this video on this page to complete our documentation
