Jordan Smith, who won NBC’s The Voice in December, will release his full-length debut album, Something Beautiful, via LightWorkers Media/Republic Records, on March 18. His first single is “Stand in the Light.”
The 22-year-old from Harlan, Kentucky, is the highest-selling artist to ever emerge from The Voice. In less than six months, he sold over a million singles and made The Voice history by landing eight songs in the iTunes Top 10. He is one of only two artists, alongside Cassadee Pope, to notch three No. 1’s during the show’s season.
Some of his most popular digital tracks were renditions of “Somebody to Love,” “Mary, Did You Know?” “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” and “Hallelujah.”
This is the first record to be released under the new collaboration between LightWorkers Media and Republic Records. Producers are David Foster and Stephan Moccio.
“When you hear Jordan Smith’s beautiful debut album, Something Beautiful, you will be transported.” said executive producers Roma Downey and Mark Burnett. “These amazing song choices combined with his beautiful voice will take you on a heartfelt and hope-filled emotional journey. It is our hope that you allow this special album from this extraordinary young man to wash over you and renew your spirit.”
“We’re honored to expand our relationship with Mark Burnett, Roma Downey, and LightWorkers Media,” said Republic Records Executive Vice President/General Manager of West Coast, Tom Mackay. “We all recognize Jordan Smith’s immense talent, presence, and charisma, and we’re going to collectively ensure that unmistakable voice of his is heard everywhere.”
