Broadway star Aaron Lazar, diagnosed with ALS in January 2022, is set to release his debut album 'Impossible Dream' on August 23, 2024, aimed at supporting the ALS Network.

A portion of the album's proceeds will benefit the ALS Network, which provides support and promotes research for ALS.

Lazar emphasizes that the album's purpose is to provide love and support to those in need through music.

The album features a nine-song collection with collaborations from notable artists including Josh Groban, Neil Patrick Harris, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and the late Rebecca Luker.

The initiative for the album began after Lazar's story was shared by PEOPLE in February 2023, inspiring the creation of this inspirational project.

Lazar expressed his desire to rise above the challenges posed by his diagnosis, stating he didn't want to be pulled down into the inertia of the disease.

A highlight of the album is a collaborative performance of 'The Impossible Dream' from 'The Man of La Mancha', a song that symbolizes Lazar's healing journey.

The recording of the titular song took place on June 13, 2023, in New York City, showcasing the support of the Broadway community.

With over two decades of experience in performance, Lazar has worked on Broadway and collaborated with renowned directors like Martin Scorsese.

Lazar's journey has highlighted the power of love and community in facing adversity, inspiring audiences with his resilience.

He was honored as the keynote speaker at the ALS Network's annual gala in Los Angeles, where he shared his story and inspired many.

The album also features contributions from a choir of friends and family, further emphasizing its community-driven message.
