Listen: Josh Groban Shares New Rendition of 'Skyfall' from Upcoming Album
Now available to stream, the track is the third song to be released from Cinematic.
Josh Groban has shared his new rendition of “Skyfall" from the James Bond film of the same name, originally performed by Adele. Now available to stream, the track is the third song to be released from Cinematic, the upcoming album from the Tony Award-nominated performer. Listen to it below.
The ten-song collection sees Groban cover songs from movies like The Godfather, The Lion King, Stand By Me, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and many more. Produced by Greg Wells (Wicked, The Greatest Showman, Dua Lipa, Adele, Taylor Swift), the album was recorded in both Los Angeles and London. It will arrive May 8th via Reprise Records and is available to pre-save/pre-order HERE.
Last month, Groban shared his interpretation of “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from The Lion King, featuring the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles and earlier this month, dropped “As Time Goes By” from the classic 1942 film Casablanca.
Album highlights include a Sicilian-language rendition of “Brucia La Terra” from The Godfather, a duet of “Unchained Melody” with friend and touring mate Jennifer Hudson, and a rendition of “Moon River” with his dad, Jack Groban, playing the trumpet solo.
Groban's new album marks his first full collection of newly recorded material since 2020's Harmony, which featured duets with Leslie Odom Jr. and Sara Bareilles. Since then, the performer returned to Broadway in the Spring of 2023, playing the title role in the revival of Sweeney Todd, which earned him Tony and GRAMMY Nominations.
Last week, Groban completed his GEMS World Tour, delivering performances to audiences in Hawaii, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and the Netherlands.
In June, Groban will head back out on the road for a North America tour 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. For tickets and more information, visit here.
In March, Groban’s Find Your Light Foundation (FYLF) announced that, in its most recent grant cycle, it awarded over $1.5M to 257 nonprofit organizations in 40 states, helping ensure access to high-quality arts education for over 600,000 K-12 youth. Since its inception 20 years ago, they’ve donated over $7.5M to more than 500 arts education organizations across the U.S.
In 2016, Groban made his Tony-nominated Broadway debut as Pierre in Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1912. In the Spring of 2023, Groban returned to Broadway in Sweeney Todd. His screen credits include Glee, The Office, Crazy, Stupid, Love, and Netflix’s The Good Cop, as well as starring as the Beast in ABC’s Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration.
