Josh Groban: GEMS World Tour

On 12 April 2026 Josh Groban will perform at AFAS Live in Amsterdam as part of his GEMS World Tour. The American singer, known for his warm baritone, has carved out a place for himself between pop and classical music since the early 2000s. Discovered by producer David Foster and known for albums such as Josh Groban, Closer and Awake, he effortlessly shifts on stage between pop ballads, orchestral arrangements and a touch of musical theatre. He sings in multiple languages and can just as readily offer an intimate piano rendition as a number with strings and a full band.

The tour draws on his catalogue while leaving room for new arrangements and stories woven around the songs. Expect a set that lets his instinct for storytelling come through: songs that build, silences that resonate, and careful attention to phrasing and lyrics. In recent years Groban has also spent time on Broadway, notably as Pierre Bezukhov in Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, and that theatrical precision is evident in his live work.

For fans of crossover, musical theatre and lyrical pop, this is an opportunity to experience his voice up close, in a set that bridges hit repertoire and stagecraft.
