Records Present Spectacular Lincoln Center Concert Event Originally Broadcast on the Eve of Groban’s Latest No. 1 Album Release Centennial, Colo. – June 24, 2013 – With overwhelming fan demand continuing for Josh Groban’s No. 1 album released earlier this year, one of the most powerful voices in modern popular music is returning to the big screen in a special edition of “Josh Groban: All That Echoes Artist Cut.” This special event, a personal collaboration between Josh Groban, Warner Bros. Records and NCM Fathom Events, will hit select movie theaters nationwide on Tuesday, July 16 at 7:30 p.m. local time, with an updated welcome message to movie theater audiences from the singer. Groban was up-close and candid with fans during the original February 4 premiere event, broadcast from New York’s famed Lincoln Center, where he performed hits and selections from his just- released album “All That Echoes,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. In addition to his original February Q&A session with fans who texted and tweeted from around the country, updates to this special encore will include a very special behind- the-scenes journey through the creative process of the making of “All that Echoes” as seen through the eyes of Groban himself. Tickets for “Josh Groban: All That Echoes Artist Cut” are available at participating theater box offices and online at www.FathomEvents.com.

The event will be broadcast to more than 425 select movie theaters across the country through NCM’s exclusive Digital Broadcast Network. This cinema event was produced by LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER, a Lincoln Center Media Production. “The Fathom event featuring the concert ‘Live from Lincoln Center’ was such a wonderful experience for me and we want to do it again! The event will include a lot of new footage, a huge amount of behind the scenes of the making of “All that Echoes” and everything that went into it,” said Josh Groban. “If you weren’t able to go last time, maybe you can come this time, and if you did go last time and you want to do it again, come bring a friend.” Fans attending the initial event in more than 500 U.S. movie theaters on February 4 were among the first to hear Groban’s new songs performed live, as well as request songs to be included in the playlist that the singer performed at the Allen Room, which features a stunning 50’ x 90’ window overlooking Central Park. Groban co-wrote seven of the 12 tracks that appear on “All That Echoes,” which also includes five covers, such as Stevie Wonder’s “I Believe (When I Fall in Love It Will Be Forever)”, Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová’s “Falling Slowly” (the Oscar®-winning song from the film Once), and Jimmy Webb’s “The Moon’s A Harsh Mistress.” Special guests on the album include Grammy® - winning trumpet player Arturo Sandoval on “Un Alma Mas” and Italian superstar vocalist Laura Pausini on “E Ti Prometerro.” “Fan’s in movies theaters across the country simply loved Josh’s original, live concert event broadcast this past February,” said Dan Diamond, senior vice president for NCM Fathom Events. “For one more night, Josh Groban fans can experience that magic again and see new bonus features created for this encore performance that will leave them wanting even more.” Josh Groban has sold over 25 million albums and DVDs worldwide, and ranks as Billboard’s 14th top-selling artist of the 2000s—with more than 20 million units sold in the U.S. alone. He is also the only artist to have two albums appear on the Top 20 best- selling albums list of the past decade. In November 2010, Groban released “Illuminations,” which debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard’s Top 200 chart (Groban’s fourth consecutive Top 5 chart bow), and reached platinum status just two months later.

  • An Anthem for Sad Girls Who Don't Know Heartbreak, but Do Know The
    An Anthem for Sad Girls Who Don’t Know Heartbreak, But Do Know the Bible Hannah Gordon You are my sweetest downfall Regina Spektor I loved you first, I loved you first “Samson” The first time I heard “Samson” by Regina Spektor, I cried. Begin to Hope I’m sure you did, too. It’s just that kind of song. 06/2006 Sire I was in my best friend Rebecca’s bedroom, staring at the ceiling fan going round and round, and pretending I was someone else. We were drinking her parents’ liquor—too much Jack mixed with not enough Coke—and texting boys with our plans to sneak out later that night. All of our weekends were spent like this, so we knew that we’d never actually follow through with it. We’d end up re-watching Pride and Prejudice or Breakfast at Tiffany’s, just drunk enough to feel dizzy and fall asleep early. In the morning, we’d make banana pancakes doused in maple syrup, lumpy and sticky sweet. Hearing that song was a revelation. It was transcendent. Maybe it was all the Jack and Cokes. But maybe it wasn’t. At fifteen, I thought I knew heartbreak, if only vicariously: I’d read books, seen movies, and listened to songs like “Samson.” My aching, teenage heart would shatter anew with each fictional iteration of something I had yet to experience myself. This hurt, this pain— I thought it was the real thing. Or, at least, I thought it could compare. “What is this?” I asked her once the song finished.

  • The Minstrel; Or the Progress of Genius
    The Minstrel; or the Progress of Genius By James Beattie THE MINSTREL; IN TWO BOOKS. _Me vero primum dulces ante omnia Musæ, Quarum sacra fero, ingenti perculsus amore, Accipiant.----_ VIRGIL. THE MINSTREL; OR, THE PROGRESS OF GENIUS. BOOK FIRST. I. Ah! who can tell how hard it is to climb The steep, where Fame's proud temple shines afar! Ah! who can tell how many a soul sublime Has felt the influence of malignant star, And waged with Fortune an eternal war! Checked by the scoff of Pride, by Envy's frown, And Poverty's unconquerable bar, In life's low vale remote has pined alone, Then dropt into the grave, unpitied and unknown! II. And yet, the languor of inglorious days Not equally oppressive is to all. Him, who ne'er listened to the voice of praise, The silence of neglect can ne'er appal. There are, who, deaf to mad Ambition's call, Would shrink to hear th' obstreperous trump of Fame; Supremely blest, if to their portion fall Health, competence, and peace. Nor higher aim Had He, whose simple tale these artless lines proclaim. III. This sapient age disclaims all classic lore; Else I should here, in cunning phrase, display, How forth THE MINSTREL fared in days of yore, Right glad of heart, though homely in array; His waving locks and beard all hoary grey: And, from his bending shoulder, decent hung His harp, the sole companion of his way, Which to the whistling wind responsive rung: And ever as he went some merry lay he sung.
