#NEWMUSIC: JOSH GROBAN RELEASES NEW ALBUM “CINEMATIC”

Tony®, EMMY®, and five-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated singer, songwriter, actor, and philanthropist Josh Groban has announced his new album, CINEMATIC, arriving May 8th via Reprise Records. A tribute to the grand and gorgeous world of the silver screen, the 10-track album was produced by Greg Wells (Wicked, The Greatest Showman, Dua Lipa, Adele, Taylor Swift), recorded in both Los Angeles and London, and includes globally revered songs from such movie classics as The Godfather, Casablanca, The Lion King, Stand By Me, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and many more. See a full tracklisting included below. The album is available to pre-save/pre-order HERE. Watch the official trailer HERE.

To herald the announcement, Josh has shared his soaring new rendition of “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from the beloved film The Lion King, offering a first glimpse into the grandeur and emotional depth of the upcoming project, also featuring the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles.

“There’s something incredibly powerful about the way a song or score can elevate a story and stay with you long after the credits roll,” Groban explains. “With CINEMATIC, I wanted to honor that feeling — the nostalgia, the drama, the romance — while bringing my own voice and perspective to these timeless songs. Recording this album felt like stepping into some of the most iconic moments in film history, and I hope listeners are transported the same way I have always been when the lights go down and the music begins.”

CINEMATIC promises to be both nostalgic and newly inspired – a transportive listening experience that honors the scores and songs that defined generations, while reminding us why we fell in love with them in the first place. Standout moments on CINEMATIC include a sweeping, Sicilian-language rendition of “Brucia La Terra” from The Godfather, a sweeping orchestral version of “As Time Goes By” from Casablanca a stirring duet of “Unchained Melody” with friend and touring mate Jennifer Hudson, and a heart warming rendition of “Moon River” with his dad, Jack Groban, playing the trumpet solo. Also featured is an emotionally charged performance of “Skyfall,” showcasing Groban’s dynamic vocal prowess at its most cinematic.

Just last month, Groban kicked off his GEMS World Tour with a sold-out performance in Honolulu, HI at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center Arena, before bringing the tour across Asia and Oceania with stops in Taipei, Singapore, Jakarta, Manila, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia. With momentum building worldwide, Groban is set to continue the tour later this month with performances in Dublin, London, Paris, Berlin, Frankfurt, Düsseldorf, and Amsterdam. In June, the tour continues through North America with special guest Jennifer Hudson, including stops at TD Garden in Boston on June 6, Madison Square Garden in New York City on June 12, and Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on June 16. Additionally, Groban will return to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace this fall for GEMS The Las Vegas Residency. See a full tour routing included below.
