A local favorite performer and 2008 American Idol alum, David Archuleta, will return to Cache Valley for a holiday concert, A Christmas with David Archuleta, on Tuesday, November 30 at the Logan High School Auditorium. “I love performing in Logan,” David said. “It is a great town that has always made me feel at home. I am looking forward to coming back.” David says his Christmas concert will be traditional, full of his original Christmas music, like He is Born, Winter in the Air, and Christmas Every Day, along with songs audiences have known and loved for generations. “I love to sing
O Holy Night,” David said. “It has a beautiful melody, and it just soars.” David released his eighth album, Therapy Sessions, in 2020, a pop record that Billboard magazine dubbed as his “most vulnerable music yet.” The tracks narrate David’s lifelong struggle with mental health. “Whether it was fear, loss, dwelling on the past, or anxiety, there’s a constant battle going on because so much of my mind doesn’t want to budge,” David said. “The songs [on the album] are a sort of back and forth within the inner dialogue I have with myself.”
