Headlines: Adam Lambert Schon Photo Shoot, David Archuleta Heads to Philippines

Adam Lambert Schon Magazine Photo Shoot and Feature

The American Idol alum is featured in this month’s Schon magazine.

interview | adam lambert – Having a rather intimate crowd must be nice… You’ve been performing with Queen for almost a decade now, how do you balance being a solo act and playing with them? Do you feel like you will ever stop or would you keep both sides alive? I don’t know… I wish I had a crystal ball! [laughs] I don’t know what the future holds. I’m working on an album right now, and I’ve never felt like working with Queen has put any sort of a damper on my solo work. I don’t feel as though we can compete with each other. I think that actually, they have coexisted very well, timing wise. The collaboration with Queen is little chunks of time that I go on the road with them, and then I’m done so it’s left me plenty of time to sort of flip-flop into my solo career. I realise it’s been about three years since my last album, but I don’t think the delays really have anything to do with being on tour with them. They’re more business delays and me taking my time creatively. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to do for a minute, as far as my solo career. Now, I’ve explored some new sounds and some new concepts and I’m on the course to put something out, but it took a second to discover that for myself, for this project. – Read more at Schon

American Idol’s David Archuleta in the Philippines

Interview: Cassadee Pope teases her upcoming record and discusses her Country Music Week experience – Welcome back to the UK! I know people have been wanting you to come back for ages. After C2C in 2017 your UK fans really wanted you to return for a headline tour. What’s your experience been like in the UK? It’s always been so great. I came over here a lot with Hey Monday and accumulated this really hardcore loyal fan base that stuck with me after I left Hey Monday. I would love to come here more if I could so any chance I get, like this Country Music Week… getting to come and play Borderline yesterday. It was so eye opening because anything I’m releasing they’re getting here. Hearing them sing along to the new stuff was so crazy. I didn’t really know what to expect with the two new songs I released, Take You Home and One More Red Light, and the reaction was just incredible. They sang so loud. – Read more at Entertainment Focus
