Episode Guide - Take Your Shoes Off

Episode 109 · Published 2021-05-11
Guest: Josh Groban

We can’t quite believe it either... Josh Groban is on the balcony!!

The award winning singer, actor and philanthropist steps into the TYSO studio and gives us everything we could have hoped for. Despite meeting for the first time, the two unpack everything from connecting to song lyrics, emotional maturity, and burping during a live performance. 

Rick enquires about Josh’s goofy side and what it’s like to sing duets with Sara Bareilles, Beyonce, Elton John and basically every other music icon. The two discuss social media commenting and how Rick slid into Josh’s DM’s and he loved it. 

Josh details making his new album ‘Harmony’ in quarantine, virtual touring, and the value of a good producer. We hear how they share a similar perspective about live shows and how performances that feel like walking on a tightrope are the most fulfilling. Of course we couldn’t have one of the greatest singers alive on the podcast without a special performance… strings and all.
