We are thrilled to be joining together with Roundabout Theatre Company on the new imprint, Roundabout Records. Caroline, or Change is the perfect first release for this new venture!"

"Being able to preserve it for all time--as our 25th cast album and the premiere recording for the Roundabout Records imprint with Broadway Records--means the world to everyone who worked so hard to get it here. I'm looking forward to many more collaborations with Van and his team."
