In a new interview with Pop Crush, James Durbin talks about working with David Cook on a co-write called “Screaming” (So, David and James actually did sit down and work together? They obviously met, at least) and plans for a tour with, possibly, a big name act. Also, James played a few acoustic tunes for the Pop Crush staff.

How was working with [‘American Idol’ alum] David Cook?
It was great, he’s a really cool guy, just real chill. I had no clue but he’s a really, really great guitar player, just really good. He was jammin’ and it was just cool to watch. It was cool to see that, you know, a different side of someone that you don’t see on TV.
With your album coming out at the end of the month, do you have plans to do a big tour next year? Are you going to headline with anybody else, and if so who would that be?
We’re looking it over. A really, really, really big name just came into the mix and we’re all just petrified. If that happens even for just a couple shows it would be like ‘wow.’ [Laughs] It’s just oh my God, just even the thought of the possibility that this could happen, is just jaw hit the floor. Just trying to figure stuff out for late January, early February to get on a big national tour.
But you’ll start touring sometime right after the new year or sooner?
Early December before Christmas — like a two-week thing. My whole thing is I just really can’t wait to put [out] this record and just give it to the fans, not just via Best Buy, Walmart, iTunes and Amazon. I want to give it to them, like hand it to them on a silver platter in a shed or in an arena or stadium or even in a freakin’ parking lot on a stage. I don’t care where it is, if there’s people there, they’re going to get one hell of a show. I just can’t wait.
