VIDEO: Josh Groban Talks Upcoming Tour, Free Google Play Giveaways & More

Josh Groban stopped by CBS's THE TALK to talk about performing in Paris following the recent terrorist attacks on that city. He also shared the big news that he has teamed with Google Play to give away both "Stages" and his Christmas album ["Noel"] for free, for a whole week.

Later, Groban spills on partying with former neighbor Kid Rock, sharing, "He would invite all different kinds of people to house, he would invite rockers, college professors, and there was the Beastie Boys there...it just wound up being a very raucous kind of conversation that would happen, it was fun, there might have been a stripper pole, I might have been on it? I think I might have put on a cheerleading skirt over my jeans!"

It was announced today that Groban will be making his Broadway debut in September in NATASHA, PIERRE & THE GREAT COMET OF 1812. Get more details here!

Groban has released seven studio albums, 2001's self-titled double-platinum debut, 2003's multi-platinum Closer, 2006's double-platinum Awake, 2007's quadruple-platinum Grammy-nominated Noel, 2010's platinum Illuminations, and 2013's All That Echoes, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, giving Groban his first No. 1 debut and third chart-topper. The album and its intimate "In The Round" tour earned Groban some of his best reviews to date.

In April, Groban released Stages, a collection of some of the greatest songs from musical theater. The album has been nominated for a 2016 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. In February, Groban will release a CD/DVD package, entitled Stages Live, featuring performances recorded at the historic Los Angeles Theater in downtown L.A. for his all-new PBS special Josh Groban: Stages Live. In July 2016, he will embark on an extensive North American tour to support Stages, entitled "Josh Groban: On Stage." An active arts education philanthropist and advocate, Groban is a member of Americans for the Arts Artists Committee and Groban's Find Your Light Foundation helps enrich the lives of young people through arts, education, and cultural awareness.
