With his sensitive good looks and elegant style, concert singer Josh Groban is at the vanguard of a new industry trend; traditional music for young people. The world of professional concert singing has long been isolated from the rest of the pop music mainstream, but singers like Josh Groban and Charlotte Church are seeing big album sales performing just this type of traditional music. Josh Groban's voice can perfectly tackle the strenuous technical demands brought on by pieces like "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" and "Alla Luce Del Sole" while also investing them with a power and lyrical inflection that is purely his own. Upon hearing Josh Groban sing for the first time, it is not uncommon to experience the proverbial "chills" that so many people describe when hearing a flawless performance. Groban grew up in the entertainment capital of Los Angeles, California, where he was raised with strict Christian values. This is also a frequent theme in his music, and a subject he discusses often during public appearances. Although he wasn't instantly drawn to music, he did discover he had a talent for singing as a teenager. Soon, Groban was playing the lead in his high school musicals and taking voice lessons outside school. When Josh Groban was 17, his well-connected vocal coach introduced him to the legendary Canadian music producer David Foster, who has worked with everyone from Celine Dion and Madonna to Andrea Bocelli and Michael Buble. Foster saw something in the young Groban, and suddenly Josh was working as a vocal stand-in for Bocelli and rehearsing duets with Celine. Foster even brokered a record deal for Josh Groban with Warner Brothers Records, through his own boutique label 143 Records. Josh Groban got his big mainstream break when he appeared on the 2001 series finale of the hit show Ally McBeal, singing "You're Still You." Audiences were stunned by the young singer, and clamored to find out more about him. Josh Groban has since cultivated a devoted fan-base, and his live performances are quickly becoming legendary.
