The piano man is back behind the keys after dark. Jeff Goldblum just released ‘Night Blooms,’ the companion album to 2025’s top 10 and jazz number 1 record ‘Still Blooming,’ out now on Universal’s recently relaunched Fontana label. His longtime band The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra joins him throughout.
The record lands hot on the heels of Goldblum’s second turn as the Wizard in ‘Wicked: For Good.’ Starring in a major screen musical deepened his lifelong love of playing piano and singing, helping turn a 30-year passion project into a thriving parallel career.
‘Night Blooms’ builds on the musical bonds Goldblum formed on the Wicked set, including with co-star Cynthia Erivo, while opening new relationships with singing sensation Charlie Puth, British artist dodie and jazz legend Melody Gardot. The album offers dazzling new takes on beloved standards from Hollywood’s golden era, all carried by Goldblum’s loveable vocals and versatile, seasoned piano playing.
The first single “Misty” features Gardot. Erroll Garner’s classic gets reimagined as a funky jazz boogaloo with a new arrangement by bassist Alex Frank and organist Joe Bagg, and Gardot’s urbane vocal adds a fresh layer of sophistication to the famous opening line.
The collaborations keep delighting. Cynthia Erivo duets playfully with Goldblum on “If I Only Had A Brain,” Haley Reinhart takes a pop detour through songs by Taylor Swift and Loreen, dodie reinvents the standard “Mean To Me,” and Charlie Puth layers complex 5-part harmonies onto the Rodgers and Hart classic “Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered.” The album closes with a treat, four songs from ‘Still Blooming’ including Scarlett Johansson’s version of “The Best Is Yet To Come,” now reshaped into intimate late-night versions that conjure a jazz club in the small hours.
These performances sparkle with warmth, wit and real musicianship, the sound of a band at its most playful and adventurous yet.
The Night Blooms World Tour is well underway, carrying Goldblum and the band to iconic international venues. The run includes one-night-only performances alongside The Metropolitan Orchestra, conducted by Sarah-Grace Williams, at the Sydney Opera House, and with a 50-plus-piece orchestra at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Added UK dates brought the show to packed venues in Wolverhampton, Glasgow and Manchester.
