  • Meeting Josh Groban (Again): Fan/Celebrity Contact As Ordinary Behavior
    Meeting Josh Groban (Again): Fan/Celebrity Contact as Ordinary Behavior Gayle Stever Empire State College, Rochester, NY [email protected] Abstract In a participant-observer ethnographic study, the researcher offers evidence from 10 years of observation of the Josh Groban fandom as an example of fans becoming friendly acquaintances of celebrities. Contrary to the way much of the psychological literature depicts fans, as celebrity worshippers or stalkers, the largest percentage of the fans observed in this study showed normal social engagement with others outside of their fan activity, and a friendly acquaintanceship with Groban that is similar to other kinds of relationships happening outside of the context of mediated relationships. Fans who pursued these relationships did so within a social context and network of other fans in most cases. Connection through music, relief from various kinds of life stressors, or the desire to participate in charity efforts are offered as some of the explanations for what motivates the fan to seek out this kind of relationship with an attractive media persona. KEYWORDS: fan, celebrity, parasocial, ethnography, audience Introduction Social relationships are defined within a culture in a myriad of ways. While more traditional relationships have been the focus of much social psychological research, little has been done to try to define the face-to-face social relationships that develop between a media celebrity and his or her fans. These relationships exist, they can be significant in the lives of both celebrities and fans, and they are a normal occurrence for a media-saturated society. IASPM@Journal vol.6 no.1 (2016) Journal of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music ISSN 2079-3871 | DOI 10.5429/2079-3871(2016)v6i1.7en | www.iaspmjournal.net Meeting Josh Groban (Again) 105 This trend to overlook the ongoing relationships that fans have with celebrities is part of what has been referred to as the “marginalization of celebrity” (Duffett 2014: 163).

  • Biography Hit Man
    DAVID FOSTER “I believe that everyone gets three rounds in their life,” says musician, songwriter, composer, arranger, producer, and recording artist David Foster. “For me, two are completed and I’m on to Round Three. I think you have to change it up every round. My mantra is retreat and attack in another direction, which I’ve done twice. Now I'm going to do it again.” Foster’s first round was as a studio musician, arranger, and recording artist. His second round was becoming one of the most successful songwriters and record producers in history — shepherding albums that have collectively sold in the hundreds of millions. This period of his four-decade career also found him creating The David Foster Foundation and volunteering his time and talent to over 400 charities, as well as becoming a household name as a performer throughout Asia where he tours annually. For his third round, Foster is gearing up to take on Broadway with several projects. These include writing the music for a new musical about the iconic, animated character Betty Boop, which will be directed by Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell. He is writing the music for a musical based on the Amy Bloom novel and New York Times bestseller Lucky Us, directed by Tony Award-nominee Sheryl Kaller. Foster is also developing a scripted narrative one-man show based on the story of his career that he will perform himself. And finally, he is gearing up to write an original show with Oscar-nominated actor Chazz Palminteri that Foster describes as “a cross between The Bodyguard and The Phantom of the Opera.” As one of the most illustrious composers of our time, Foster’s skill set of creating hits, writing indelible melodies, and building dramatic moments, has primed him for this third round.

  • Read Mr. Groban's Testimony
    Written Testimony in Support FY10 Appropriations for the National Endowment for the Arts Submitted by Josh Groban, Singer, Songwriter House Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior, Environment and Related Agencies “Arts=Jobs” March 31, 2009 Good morning Chairman Dicks, Ranking Member Simpson and members of the Subcommittee. Please let me first express what an incredible honor it is to testify before you today on behalf of an issue that has been nothing short of transformative for me personally. My name is Josh Groban. I am a vocalist, musician, composer and actor. I am here today along with my esteemed fellow witnesses to talk about how the arts have not only enriched my life and provided me a living, but how the decisions made here, in rooms like this to fund the National Endowment for the Arts have a direct impact on the lives of those who wish to not only pursue their passions, but to contribute as productive members of their communities. Also, I believe the arts are a refuge – not an escape – from the troubles of the day and can provide hope during these traumatic economic times. I hope my story reinforces that belief. Early Years in the Arts I owe my livelihood to the arts and music. Not only because I’ve been able to sing, write and act for a living, but because there is a market of those who appreciate my work and choose to buy my recordings and attend my performances. The arts are a truly interactive experience that creates a portal that connects those who want to do and those who want to enjoy - to the mutual benefit of both.

This incredibly famous, cross generational song from "A Charlie Brown Christmas" will surely be a hit at family Christmas parties. • Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas- following Josh's platinum album Stages, he wanted a holiday song that matched the theme of Stages and found that in this famous Christmas song from the show/film Meet Me In St. Louis. • Happy XMas (War is Over) - the poignant, classic Christmas song written by John Lennon & Yoko Ono with a powerful message that seems more relevant now than ever (fans who pre-order the new album will receive this song as an instant grat track TODAY). • Believe - the Academy Award-nominated song from the Polar Express film soundtrack, never before available on a Josh Groban release.

A reading from the gospel according to John. If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever. This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you. I will not leave you orphaned; I am coming to you. In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me; because I live, you also will live. On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

  • 360° Deals: an Industry Reaction to the Devaluation of Recorded Music
    360° DEALS: AN INDUSTRY REACTION TO THE DEVALUATION OF RECORDED MUSIC SARA KARUBIAN* I. INTRODUCTION In October of 2007, Radiohead released In Rainbows without a record label. The band’s contract with record company EMI had been fulfilled in 2003, and Radiohead did not bother finding a new deal as they began recording their seventh album.1 Radiohead then made the album available at www.inrainbows.com, where fans were instructed to “pay-what-you- want” for the digital download.2 Shortly after the album’s release, the band’s front man, Thom Yorke, said “I like the people at our record company, but the time is at hand when you have to ask why anyone needs one. And, yes, it probably would give us some perverse pleasure to say ‘F___ you’ to this decaying business model.”3 It was no surprise that Radiohead received critical acclaim for the artistic merits of the album,4 or that millions of fans found a way to acquire the music. Its financial success, however, was less predictable. Radiohead declined to release statistics related to its pay-what-you-want model, but a conservative estimate suggests that the band’s profits from this digital release exceeded six and a half million.5 Furthermore, when Radiohead contracted with iTunes and a distributor to sell the album on iTunes and in stores, its high sales pushed it to the top of traditional album charts6 in early * J.D.
