Almost Famous is about a young man finding his place in the world and the indelible characters he meets along the way.
When Rolling Stone magazine hires him to go on the road with an up-and-coming band, William is thrust into the rock-and-roll circus, where his love of music, his longing for friendship, and his integrity as a writer collide. Led Zeppelin is king, Richard Nixon is President, and idealistic 15-year-old William Miller is an aspiring music journalist. The line ‘it’s all happening’ has always been so key to the show, and now that we’re heading to Broadway, it’s finally come true. Almost Famous has always been about the power of that connection: hearing a piece of music for the first time, looking into a person’s eyes and feeling the electricity, finding your tribe. We obsess over the music, we pore over every possible recording we find, and we treasure those moments when an artist stands on a stage, opens their heart in that most personal way, and creates real magic. In a statement, Cameron Crowe said, “Broadway fans and rock fans have so much in common. Listen to the first track "Everybody's Coming Together" HERE and stay tuned for further song releases in the coming months. Sony Masterworks Broadway will release the Original Broadway Cast Album of Almost Famous this fall.
