Out today: David Archuleta's 'Christmas From the Heart'

David Archuleta is the second Idol runner-up to release an album within two weeks. He is, however, the first alum to release a Christmas album for the 2009 season in Christmas From the Heart. Although Christmas seems like an eternity away, it is not uncommon to see music for the holiday season appear on store shelves in mid-October. Christmas is being released on behalf of Jive Records, Arch's label.

Also out today is Carrie Underwood's single "Mama's Song," available at iTunes as part of the countdown to Carrie's third studio album, Play On, which is due out Tues., Nov. 3.

And Brooke White's Live Session (iTunes Exclusive) EP featuring live versions of songs like "Radio Radio," "Hold Up My Heart" and "Rhiannon" was added to the juggernaut digital music retailer.
