Josh Groban - Illuminations
 
Josh Groban's fifth studio album. On Illuminations, Groban worked with veteran producer Rick Rubin, known for his critically acclaimed work with Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers & Johnny Cash among many others. 
 
Illuminations finds both Groban and Rubin stepping out of their comfort zones. The bracing result fulfils Rubin's vision of a "fine art" Groban record, marrying the warmth of the sweeping American roots of Groban's writing and the grandeur of classical settings by matching the live, one-take performances by Groban and the intimate, core acoustic band with colourful orchestral arrangements by David Campbell and James Newton Howard.
