By this point, it feels like every major musical name has produced some kind of “pandemic project”. With Tom Kitt & The Collective's new album, Reflect, there’s a refreshing lack of gimmick to it.

In addition to being nominated for a Tony Award® this year, Tom Kitt has won a Pulitzer Prize, two Tony Awards®, a GRAMMY Award®, and an Emmy Award®. Tom’s debut album Reflect is about finding your voice when you need it most, and features songs co-written and performed by some of Broadway’s biggest stars. A true collaboration that captures the hope and heartbreak of these tumultuous times.
