As always, Phillip’s performance of the anthem was touching and beautifully understated. Check out the full video of Phillip singing the national anthem and an earlier acoustic performance by Phillip below!

Phillip Phillips Plays Early Spring Shows

Phillip Phillips was back on the road this past weekend, playing three shows in Idaho, Nevada and Florida. The were the first few major shows he has played this year while he continues to write and finish songs for his third album, of which a release date has not yet been announced.

Phillip was in great form, and his band featured a mix of new and old members, most notably cellist Dave Eggar, whose presence is always a major treat for fans, and drummer Gorden Campbell.

If you missed Phillip this weekend, do not despair, he will be back on tour this summer with veteran rockers the Goo Goo Dolls. The tour opens in Mountain View, CA on July 14, and runs until September 15, in Woodinville, WA. For more information and to buy tickets, click here.

Phillip Phillips Guest Stars on Pure Genius

Phillip Philips made his TV series debut last Thursday on Pure Genius, the CBS medical drama from producer Jason Katims (Parenthood, Friday Night Lights). Phillip played himself in a short but key scene of the episode’s main storyline, which involved Madeline, a bright young musician battling leukemia. The scene was moving and very effective, thanks in great part to the performance of Jade Pettyjohn, the talented actress who played Madeline. I don’t want to spoil it if you haven’t watched it, but Phillip was also great, doing what he does best, which is bringing his gift of music to those who most need it.

If you missed the episode, you can watch it in full here and here (I highly recommend it to follow the entire arc of the storyline). Or to re-watch Phillip’s scene, take a look at the video below, courtesy of mjsbigblog.
