Matt Caplan, Will Chase, Joshua Henry, Karen Olivo, and Alysha Umphress will sing on the studio cast album for composer/lyricist team Chris Miller and Nathan Tysen’s Fugitive Songs, which will be recorded in September, with a planned December 2011 release to be distributed by Yellow Sound Label.

Fugitive Songs is structured as a song cycle that tracks a journey across America, spotlighting people on the run, including a disgruntled Subway sandwich employee, a jilted ex-cheerleader, a pair of Patty Hearst fanatics, and a stoner who robs a convenience store against his will.

The musical was originally produced Off-Broadway in 2008 by the Dreamlight Theatre Company, and was nominated for a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Revue.
