David Hernandez was one of three talented Davids who made it to the Top 12 on Season 7 of American Idol. The judges were big fans of David during the audition phase, and he continued to do well in the semi-final rounds. As a soul and R&B singer, it was The Beatles week that was challenging to David and ultimately sent him home.

Since competing on American Idol, David Hernandez has been working on his music career and hopes to put out an album in the near future. In January, David had the exciting opportunity to open for John Legend at the Declare Yourself Inaugural Ball in Washington, D.C.

Happy Birthday, David!
