JOSH GROBAN ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM

HARMONY

 

 

 

GROBAN PERFORMS A NEW COLLECTION OF TIMELESS SONGS

ALONG WITH TWO ORIGINALS

 

AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE NOVEMBER 20, 2020

 

 

October 2, 2020 (Los Angeles, CA) -  Global superstar Josh Groban announced today that he will be releasing his brand new album, Harmony, on November 20th via Reprise Records. The album is available for pre-order HERE, and fans who pre-order the album will receive an instant grat download of Josh’s beautiful cover rendition of the classic song “Impossible Dream.” Listen to “Impossible DreamHERE.

 

With Harmony, Groban performs a collection of timeless songs along with two originals, showcasing the artist’s unparalleled vocal prowess.  Highlights include The Impossible Dream, Angels, I Can't Make You Love Me, Celebrate Me Home, She and many more.  The album was mostly produced by Bernie Herms with additional songs produced by Steve Jordan, Tommee Profitt, and Federico Vindver.

 

Harmony also includes a performance from Tony Award winner Leslie Odom Jr (Hamilton), performing with Groban on the song Shape Of My Heart; and a performance from Grammy Award winner Sara Bareilles, performing with Groban on the classic Joni Mitchell song, Both Sides Now. Grammy Award winner Kirk Franklin brings his unique blend of energy, gospel, and choir to a brand new original song, The Fullest.

 

Harmony was recorded in two parts. Before the pandemic we recorded about five songs, with the full intention of making this an album of classics that I love and have always wanted to sing. Beautiful in its simplicity of scope. We were recording and finding songs between concerts and fully expected to continue doing that for the next couple of months,” Groban said. “Then, sound was replaced with solitude. To have nothing but space, and to be sharing in a collective global tragedy, changed everything. Suddenly I was not steering the ship confidently on course. The waves had to take me to, hopefully, some sunlight. The result is an album that began to take a new shape.”

 

“When I was finally able to really sing again, to interpret, to immerse myself in these timeless melodies and stories, it became my saving grace and not just a pleasure. Musicians and producers from all over the country and the world blended together from their respective studios and homes. The title of the album represents the seemingly miraculous full picture of those efforts becoming clear,” Groban continued.

 

Harmony also has two original songs that I was not expecting to write. These songs were written and mostly recorded in the corner of my bedroom during lockdown and while they may not fit a style continuity of the project I originally had in mind, they fit what has been in my heart this very moment and are bursting with my hope for the future. It is with such immense gratitude that I get to release Harmony to you now. I hope that every ounce of the love and healing I experienced recording it finds its way to you too.”
