By: Nicole Rosky Apr. 18, 2016
Broadway Records announced today the official release of An American Victory: A New Musical. The studio cast recording is now available for pre-order at http://www.broadwayrecords.com and Amazon, and will be available on iTunes and other retailers on April 22, 2016. Featuring an all-star cast headlined by Ashley Brown, Adam Jacobs, John Owen-Jones, Ramin Karimloo, Hugh Panaro and Aaron Tveit, this sweeping, epic album features twenty-one songs from the musical written by new composer Louis R. Bucalo. An American Victory is set in 1801, as America experiences brutal attacks on its ships by government sponsored pirates, whose extortion demands have grown to reach twenty percent of the entire government's budget. Based on actual historical events, An American Victory tells the story of an audacious act of defiance against organized terror that forever changes the lives of all those caught in the swirling struggle, and the path of a nation.
Below, we are excited to bring you an exclusive track from the album- "All I Am," performed by Ramin Karimloo. In the song, Jacob Goodman explains to his new fiancé why he has to leave and join the pirate war.
"I'm something of an American history buff, and this was a fascinating slice of it I didn't know. The story is so compelling, and the cast and music so terrific, that when the album came to us I knew we had to release it," said Broadway Records president Van Dean.
"The situation and struggle of those who fought this battle in our country's earliest days is as powerful and resonant now as it was to those who lived it.", said Louis R. Bucalo, composer and lyricist. "Once I came to know them, I wanted to tell their story."
