 Exciting news! Thanks to our friend @michaeljmoritz -Nick’s one man show he created last April @54below is being released by @bwayrecords with presale starting today. ⠀ Nick would be absolutely thrilled to hear this news. I’ve never seen my husband work so hard on something and be so nervous to perform. I was so proud of him and absolutely loved watching him onstage these two nights. He created this show from scratch, choosing songs to tell a story... his story. There’s some Broadway tunes with fun guest stars, some pop, standards, a little Latin and of course the encore is Live Your Life. ⠀ The album release date will be on Nicks 42nd birthday, September 17, 2020.

When asked about her feelings surrounding the new album, Kloots said to BroadwayWorld:

"I've never seen my husband work so hard on a show and boy was he nervous. It was the first one-man show he had created and he wanted to give the audience something to remember. Nick created a night of music and story telling that was extremely personal too. It is a mix of Broadway, Rock 'n' Roll, standards and original music and, if you knew Nick, it was perfect!"

The album is available for pre-order now and will be available on September 17.
