The powerful rendition drops ahead of Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl
Ahead of his highly anticipated opening night performance as Judas in Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl tonight (Fri, Aug 1st), Grammy-nominated superstar entertainer Adam Lambert teams up with one of the most influential figures in musical theatre, Andrew Lloyd Webber to release a showstopping new rendition of “Heaven On Their Minds.” This reimagined recording of the iconic song, released via The Other Songs label, opens the world-famous musical and is now available everywhere digitally, with a limited edition seven-inch vinyl coming soon.
Executively produced and arranged by Andrew Lloyd Webber, the new track was produced by Martin Terefe (Yungblud, Shawn Mendes, Christina Aguilera).
Jesus Christ Superstar was originally performed at the Hollywood Bowl in 1971. In addition to lyrics by Tim Rice and music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, this production will be directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Sergio Trujillo, conducted and musically directed by Tony and Grammy-winner Stephen Oremus, with casting by The Telsey Office, and is produced in association with Neil Meron and Robert Greenblatt.
Lambert’s role as Judas in the Hollywood Bowl’s production of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar this weekend follows his long-awaited Broadway debut as Emcee in Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club earlier this year, where his theatrical chops were praised by critics and fans alike.
