Cirque du Soleil Paramour, the high-flying troupe's new Broadway musical, has announced plans to release its cast album digitally tomorrow, August 26, via iTunes, Amazon music, Spotify, and Apple Music. Physical copies will be available September 16 via Amazon. The album is produced by Cirque du Soleil and RED, a Sony distribution company, and marks Cirque du Soleil's first-ever original Broadway cast recording.
The company recorded the album on June 29 and 30, laying down tracks for 18 songs from the show, written by Bob & Bill and Andreas Carlsson.
