David Cook Biography:
David Roland Cook was born December 20, 1982 in Houston, Texas. He is an American singer-songwriter and musician, and is a finalist on the seventh season of American Idol. He currently lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma but was raised in Blue Springs, Missouri. Cook's interest in music began early in life; he received his first guitar at the age of 2. He began singing in second grade, when his elementary school music teacher gave him a solo in a school choir performance. He proceeded to perform in musicals, including The Music Man, West Side Story, and Singin' in the Rain. He earned a theater scholarship to the University of Central Missouri, but he abandoned it after two semesters, graduating from the school in 2006 with a degree in graphic design. After his college graduation, he relocated to Tulsa to pursue his career in music, telling his family, "I just want to give myself until I'm 26 years old to get a job."
Cook was the lead singer and guitarist of the band Axium from 1999 until 2006. Cook released a solo independent album, Analog Heart, in 2006, the year he graduated from the college. David auditioned for American Idol in Omaha, Nebraska, performing Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer."
As he sailed through to the top 24, Cook has taken advantage of the decision to allow contestants to play musical instruments. He owns a white, left handed Gibson Les Paul with the letters "AC" on it, for his brothers. Since the Top 12 week, he has also been wearing an orange wristband to support a 7-year-old fan with leukemia. He is Season 7's American Idol WINNER!!! Congratulations, Cookie!!!!
