Josh Groban headed to Australia this month

PRESS RELEASE:

To mark the release of his new studio album Stages, multi-platinum recording artist Josh Groban has announced an Australian promotional visit from Monday 20 July to Sunday 26 July.  His visit will include exclusive showcases in Melbourne & Sydney and a performance on Channel Seven’s Dancing with the Stars.

In Melbourne, Josh will take the stage on Friday 24 July at Chapel Off Chapel for an exclusive live event for 3AW.   For details on how to win tickets, head to: http://www.3aw.com.au/win

Recorded with producers Humberto Gatica and Bernie Herms in both Los Angeles and London’s Abbey Road (with a 75-piece orchestra), Stages is a collection of some of the greatest musical theatre songs of all time, which Groban describes as “gorgeously arranged songs that have stood the test of time,” and which he was drawn to because of their combination of “incredible melody with an incredible story.”  Stages debuted at #1 on the UK album chart, #2 on the Billboard 200 chart and #6 on the ARIA album chart.

“Stages is an album I’ve wanted to make since I signed to Reprise/Warner Bros. Records during my freshman year as a Musical Theatre student at Carnegie Mellon,” Groban says. “I knew in my heart that, at some point, I would visit the songs I love from that world as an album. Having lived in New York City the last few years, seeing as much theatre as I could see, and having so many great friends in the theatre community, it became really inspiring to take this on. It was time.”
