Josh Groban Records Himself Singing For Mormons

Fresh off his brilliant cameo in Jimmy Kimmell's "I #@%+$$ Ben Affleck" video,
smooth-voiced crooner Josh Groban is making plans to release a live
concert
CD/DVD package. Awake Live, which was recorded during an August 2007 gig in Salt Lake City, Utah, will hit stores on May 6th and spin-off into a PBS
special sometime June. The mark of a true businessman: repackaging the same gig three times in order to triple profits. Make those dollar bills, Josh!
According to Billboard, facts are still a little muddled, but "Awake Live" will double as the singer's first single. Over the last few years, Josh Groban has quietly built up a following among both middle-aged w
women and critics. I was initially underwhelmed, but his 2007 Christmas CD Noel turned me into a fan.

For a study I was doing for ASU, I took an age demographic of Josh Groban'smost ardent fans....the average age is, indeed, 40 BUT the age range was 11-82 with equal numbers in each age group, i.e. 1/4 under 25, 1/4 25-40, 1/4 were 40-55 and 1/4 over 55. So it's a misperception that fans are all middle aged women. About 15-20% of the most dedicated fans were men. I continually see this stated in the press that Groban's fans are middle-aged women. Though at one time the fan base may have started out with that group, any more you can see just about anyone at a Groban concert. Thanks!
