Ep 258- Broadway Inspiration Aaron Lazar Talks His New Album "Impossible Dream"

This is a MUST LISTEN chat with an incredible inspiration! ALL HANDS ON DECK BPN FAMILY! Theater, television, and film actor Aaron Lazar (The Light in the Piazza, A Little Night Music, The Last Ship) shared the complete tracklist and lineup of guest artists for his debut album, Impossible Dream. Lazar continues to face ALS, and a portion of the album’s proceeds will benefit the ALS Network, an organization committed to helping people live longer and better with ALS by providing comprehensive, integrated, multidisciplinary, community-based care at no cost to the ALS community. The nine-song album will be released on August 23 and is available for pre-order now. The duets on the album include Lazar performing with Josh Groban (Sweeney Todd) on Sting’s “Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot”; Neil Patrick Harris (Hedwig and the Angry Inch) on “Fight the Dragons” from Big Fish; Leslie Odom Jr. (Purlie Victorious) on “Get Happy/Happy Days,” from The Nine Fifteen Review; Kelli O’Hara (Days of Wine and Roses) on Leonard Bernstein’s “Make Our Garden Grow”; the late Rebecca Luker on Cole Porter’s “I Am Loved”; Norm Lewis (Porgy and Bess) on “When You Believe” from The Prince of Egypt; Kate Baldwin (Hello, Dolly!) on “I’d Give It All For You” from Songs for a New World; and Loren Allred (The Greatest Showman) on Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “You’ll Never Walk Alone.” Aaron stopped by to tell us about his journey, why he went public with his battle, and what made him inspired to make this album!
