Singer songwriter Kiesza is among the artists featured on the upcoming concept album of the new Broadway musical Finding Neverland. In an all-new video that debuted today on Republic Records' official YouTube page., the artist discusses the making of the track 'Stronger' in a behind-the-scenes look.

"It was really empowering," Kiesza tells Billboard of the new song. "I related to it myself just because it took a lot of inner strength to make it in this industry, and it continues to be that way. I've been in those situations where I felt like maybe I hit a dead end, and it was all up to finding an inner strength within myself to take another step forward."

Based on the Academy Award-winning Miramax motion picture by David Magee, and the play The Man Who Was Peter Pan by Allan Knee, Finding Neverland follows the relationship between playwright J. M. Barrie and the family that inspired Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up - one of the most beloved stories of all time.

Directed by Tony-winner Diane Paulus (Pippin, Hair) with book by Olivier Award-nominee James Graham, music and lyrics by Gary Barlow(Take That) and Grammy Award-winner Eliot Kennedy, choreography by Emmy Award-winner Mia Michaels ("So You Think You Can Dance," Cirque du Soleil's Delirium), this new musical, packed with mesmerizing visuals, irresistible songs and plenty of laughs, is a timeless story about the power of imagination... and spectacular proof that you never really have to grow up.
