**London, UK** – Beloved actor Jeff Goldblum, known for his captivating charm and improvisational brilliance, is adding another feather to his cap with the release of his new jazz album, “Still Blooming.” The album, out April 25th on Decca Records, features a stunning lineup of guest vocalists including Ariana Grande and Scarlett Johansson.
Goldblum, who describes his decades-long musical journey as a “lifelong love affair,” leads the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra, a group he assembled featuring some of the West Coast’s finest jazz musicians. He credits his bandmates as his “teachers and cohorts,” emphasizing the collaborative and educational nature of his musical projects. The album itself is a testament to this collaborative spirit, with song choices made “democratically” among the band members and guest appearances born from chance encounters and shared passions.
The album’s creation reflects Goldblum’s unique approach to both acting and music. He cites the improvisation inherent in jazz as directly informing his acting technique, describing the process as a continuous conversation and exchange. This improvisational spirit extends to his guest collaborations, with anecdotes about spontaneously singing with Grande and Johansson on the set of “Wicked” leading to their involvement in the album.
“Still Blooming” showcases Goldblum’s deep appreciation for the Great American Songbook, offering fresh and inventive interpretations of classic tunes. From a bossa nova rendition of “The Best Is Yet To Come” featuring Johansson, to Ariana Grande’s spirited take on Dean Martin’s “I Don’t Know Why (I Just Do),” the album promises a delightful and unexpected listening experience.
Goldblum, who will be performing at the London Palladium on April 24th, expresses his excitement about the new album and the continued evolution of his musical journey. He views music not just as a passion project but as a crucial part of his daily routine, a meditative practice that complements his demanding acting career and family life.
With future collaborations potentially including Laufey and Billie Eilish, Jeff Goldblum continues to surprise and delight, proving that at 72, he is truly “still blooming” both personally and professionally.
