Josh Groban: On Stage

Josh Groban has big plans for 2016. He’s just announced a summer U.S. tour, on top of previously announced dates in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Europe. Oh, and did we mention he’s bringing along special guest Sarah McLauchlan?

Groban is continuing to support his seventh studio album, Stages, which was released in April. The Gold certified LP is made up of songs from Broadway musicals, including “Pure Imagination,” from “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory,” “Over the Rainbow” from “Wizard of Oz,” and “What I Did For Love” from “A Chorus Line.” Groban describes the collection as “gorgeously arranged songs that have stood the test of time.”
