Shuck yeah! Broadway's Shucked has released another preview track from its original Broadway cast album, set to be released digitally May 5, and on CD June 9.
Released by Sony Masterworks Broadway and produced by Jason Howland, Billy Jay Stein, Shane McAnally, and Brandy Clark, the new preview track features Caroline Innerbichler performing the tentatively tender love song "Maybe Love."
Check out video of the song below, and stream the track in preparation for the cast recording's release.
Previously, the production released two of the show's standout tracks, "Independently Owned," as performed by Alex Newell, and "Somebody Will" as performed by Andrew Durand.
Broadway's Shucked opened at the Nederlander Theatre April 4 after beginning previews March 8. The new musical features a book by Tony winner Robert Horn (Tootsie, 13) and a score by Grammy-winning Nashville-based duo Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally. Three-time Tony winner Jack O'Brien (Hairspray, The Front Page) is at the helm.
The "farm-to-fable" musical takes place in Cobb County where the population is small and the corn fields are endless, following its residents as they work to fix their failing corn crop. But don't pay too much attention to that—it's come for the story, stay for the corn puns at Shucked.
The production stars Caroline Innerbichler as Maizy, Alex Newell as Lulu, John Behlmann as Gordy, Kevin Cahoon as Peanut, Andrew Durand as Beau, Ashley D. Kelley as Storyteller 1, and Grey Henson as Storyteller 2.
They're joined by an ensemble comprising Jimmy Brewer, Audrey Cardwell, Dwayne Clark, Rheaume Crenshaw, Jaygee Macapugay, Scott Stangland, Yasmeen Sulieman, and Quinn VanAntwerp, rounded out by swings Miki Abraham, Ken Wulf Clark, Traci Elaine Lee, and Alan Wiggins.
Shucked features music by the Grammy-winning, Nashville-based songwriting team Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally, choreography by Sarah O'Gleby, and music supervision, music direction, orchestrations, and arrangements by Tony nominee Jason Howland.
