David Archuleta @ Utah Entertainment & Choice Awards

David — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 16:52:32 +0000

The Salt Palace Convention Center

David Archuleta, Donny Osmond, and Daniel Bernhardt to be presenters at the 2011 Entertainment & Choice Awards May 20th, 2011 Live from Salt Lake City

American Idol’s David Archuleta, Matrix series co-star Daniel Bernhardt and Utah’s very own Donny Osmond are only a few of the celebrities who will illuminate Utah’s 2011 Entertainment & Choice Awards on May 20th in Salt Lake City.

“This is a Hollywood awards show combined with the hospitality of Utah,” show producer Doug Osmond said.

The Entertainment and Choice Awards (ECA) were created to spotlight those companies and individuals who have contributed to Utah’s entertainment and business communities. Nominees will be honored from a variety of areas including film, television, radio, community contribution and athletics. It’s anticipated this black tie dinner, comedy, music and awards event will draw more than 1,200 influential attendees who share the same goal of contributing to and expanding Utah’s entertainment and business infrastructure.

Notable guests include; Olympic Gold Medal Winner Derek Parra, NBA Star Shawn Bradley, former Governor Norm Bangerter, author Richard Paul Evans, theater and music star Debbie Gibson, So You Think You Can Dance stars, Ryan and Ashleigh DiLello, sports radio personality Melinda Prince, the Utah Jazz Bear, pro-racer Aaron Oliveraz, rap artist TJ Fredette, television news icon Dick Nourse and many more!

Considered the “Golden Globes” of Utah, the ECA show provides a unique spotlight of recognition for Utah’s entertainment industry and everyone is invited to attend this evening of dinner, comedy, music and red carpet awards event. Tickets are available at www.smithtix.com.

In keeping with Utah’s time honored commitment to service and benefiting the community, the ECA has partnered with the medical foundation Neuroworx (www.neuroworx.org); a company dedicated toward the research of spinal cord injuries. A portion of the evening’s proceeds will go to benefit Neuroworx’s rehabilitation facility located in Sandy, Utah.

For more details about the ECA, list of nominees, presenters and celebrity attendees, please visit our website: www.utahentertainmentawards.com.

@ the Salt Lake Palace Red Carpet

It’s really nice to be able to come home and to be able to be a part of this just because it’s something that is recognizing local talent,” Archuleta said. “I just love getting to support my hometown.”

When The Archuletor “Breaks The Silence”

David — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 16:52:32 +0000

Lipscomb University’s Allen Arena, Nashville, TN

I love music. Am an Archie or an Arch Angel. And am dang proud to be one!

But no more prouder than on 25 April 2011, when my artist of choice publicly showed his support for the Invisible Children’s 25 Campaign.

Held in Nashville, Tennessee, David, along with another fine young artist, Landon Pigg, took to the stage to “Break the Silence” in order to give back to all those who made the “The 25 Campaign” a rousing success.

The ’25? campaign, which launched mid-February, asks participants to commit to raising $25 for the Invisible Children’s Protection Plan before their 25 hours of silence.

Invisible Children’s target was to get 25,000 people to donate $25 each to raise at least $625,000 for a “Protection Plan to build the (1) region’s first rehabilitation center, (2) implement an early warning security network, and 3) support our international campaign to arrest Joseph Kony, rescue his child soldiers, and bring peace after 25 years of war.”

Communicating in Unique & Relevant Ways

Music has always been an integral part of Invisible Children’s awareness efforts. According to Bridgette Bugay, public relations for Invisible Children, “the organization has participated in over 25 national music tours, been the beneficiary of music festivals such as CMJ, has official partnerships with La Blogotheque, Spin, Filter, and Windish, and continues to feature new music in their documentaries. The media-based company understands the cultural impact of music and has worked with countless artists to communicate their mission in unique and relevant ways.”

Unique and relevant, indeed. The night concluded with music in our hearts, fervor in our guts and funding for Invisible Children’s innovative campaign amounting to at least $1.8m!

The Soul Man from Utah is Back!

It was heartwarming to hear David explain how amazing he felt that he could be on the forefront of a fund raiser, not just one of the silent donors [before he became famous].

It was mind boggling to see him perform with sass, soul and “surrender”.

Once again, the enigma that is David Archuleta could not have been more pronounced last night — ramblin’ away between songs, then like a light switch, flips into this prodigious, soul-searing, other-worldly performer!

How’d he do that?

Archies’ Collective Chorus: We Gotta Get Through This!

If last night’s performance — especially with his new band — is any indication, there is SOOO MUCH to look forward to, as David enters another fresh era in his career

Are we reeaaally ready? Guys, I suggest we put all our affairs in order. Check your insurance, last will and testament, etc… Me thinks The Archuletor unwittingly has murder in the works…

Above all, find an Archie buddy to, at the very least, resuscitate you for the “daidly” days ahead.

Enjoy the collection of eye & ear candies below Don’t tell me I didn’t warn youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, hehe.
