David Roland Cook [born December 20th 1982 in Houston, Texas] is an American singer-songwriter. On May 21st 2008, he won the seventh season of the reality television show American Idol. Raised in Blue Springs, Missouri,Cook's interest in music began early in life. 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 virtually every Christmas and PTA program. He received his first guitar, a Fender Stratocaster, at the age of 12. He also participated in choir and drama programs in middle school and high school. At Blue Springs South High School, he performed in musicals. Cook was the lead singer and guitarist of the band Axium [chosen as the best band in Kansas City in 2004] from 1999 until 2006, having formed Axium in his junior year of high school with drummer Bobby Kerr. In 2006, after the breakup of Axium, Cook relocated to Tulsa, Oklahoma, and joined the regional touring band Midwest Kings [MWK], playing guitar, bass, and singing backup vocals. He recorded one EP with the band in 2006. Cook released a solo independent album, 'Analog Heart' in 2006, for which he also designed the artwork. Cook won the Urban Tulsa Weekly's "Absolute Best of Tulsa" award for "Best Locally Produced, Independent Album" in 2007. Cook auditioned for American Idol in Nebraska, performing Bon Jovi's 'Livin' On A Prayer'. He originally did not plan to try out for the show. Cook came to the auditions initially to support his younger brother Andrew [who did not make it to Hollywood] and then, at his brother's urging, David tried out himself.
