The set includes two new songs
Reflecting on an incredible body of work, Tony, Emmy, and five-time Grammy Award-nominated singer, songwriter, actor, and philanthropist Josh Groban announces his newly curated career-spanning collection, Gems, available May 2nd via Reprise Records.
This 18-track retrospective body of work collates essential highlights from his storied career to date alongside two new songs, “Be Alright” and “Open Hands.” Produced by Bernie Herms, the latter places Josh’s stunning signature vocals front-and-center above warm orchestration. With its optimistic message, “Be Alright” shines and empowers like only Groban can.
“I’m so excited to release this collection of songs that have played such an important role in my life and career so far,” Groban shares. “These ‘gems’ have been there for me when I’ve needed them most, and to share them on one album fills me with gratitude for all they have given to amazing listeners across the world.”
Additionally, a double vinyl LP of Gems will be released on June 13th via Reprise Records. The crystal-clear vinyl will include two extra songs – “Broken Vow” and “Remember When It Rained” – handpicked by Groban himself.
Encompassing over two decades of definitive anthems, Gems traces Groban’s impact on popular culture throughout his illustrious career. Among many highlights, it boasts the triple platinum signature anthem “You Raise Me Up.” He famously performed the latter during a NASA tribute to the crew of Space Shuttle Columbia at Super Bowl XXXVIII and as a surprise for Oprah Winfrey at her 50th birthday. It also includes the Billboard Adult Contemporary No. 1 “To Where You Are.” Plus, it showcases his versatility with the likes of the Beauty and the Beast Original Motion Picture Soundtrack standout “Evermore” as well as fan favorite show stopping renditions of “Over The Rainbow” from The Wizard of Oz, “Pure Imagination” from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” Not to mention, it includes his duet with Kelly Clarkson on “All I Ask of You” from The Phantom of the Opera.
Gems also shares its name with his much-anticipated five-night run at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace — Josh Groban: Gems — Exclusive Las Vegas Engagement. He will be delivering a very special set nightly on May 9, 10, 14, 16 & 17, 2025.
Later this year, Groban will grace the stage at The Hollywood Bowl, for two nights, on September 5th and 6th. These very special shows will see him perform songs from Gems and beyond with accompaniment from Thomas Wilkins and the LA Philharmonic.
