On last night's TONIGHT SHOW, music guest Josh Groban performed "Anthem" from CHESS off his new album "Stages." Later, in a web exclusive, Groban tells the story of going to a very special New Kids on the Block Christmas concert. Watch both clips below!

Multi-platinum recording artist Josh Groban's "Stages" was released on April 28th, 2015, via Reprise Records. The album is a collection of some of the greatest musical theater 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."

Recorded with producers Humberto Gatica and Bernie Herms in both Los Angeles and London's Abbey Road (with a 75-piece orchestra), Stages features songs from LES MISERABLES ("Bring Him Home"); Rodgers & Hammerstein'sCarousel ("You'll Never Walk Alone"); Stephen Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George ("Finishing the Hat"), Sweeney Todd ("Not While I'm Around"), and Into the Woods ("Children Will Listen"); The Fantasticks ("Try to Remember"); A Chorus Line ("What I Did For Love"); Andrew Lloyd Weber's Phantom of the Opera ("All I Ask of You"), The Wizard of Oz ("Over the Rainbow"), and others.
