From his latest mass email-

"Since I moved to Los Angeles, I've lost track of who the great new fabulous talented incredible actor/singers are. You guys are hipper than I am, God knows, so you tell me: who should I be listening for? Who's perfect for my songs that I haven't worked with yet? If you know someone who's sensational and who you'd love to hear sing some JRB, let me know about them! Write to jason@jasonrobertbrown.com!"

I'd say Kerry Butler, but he's already used her. He should probably use her more often.
I would KILL to see her as Cathy in L5Y. That's so her.

JRB doesn't have his own connections? Let him do his own damn research! The freakin' nerve!

Barrett Foa - he does amazing versions of your material in his club act.

If you mean for the Birdland gig - you'd have to spring him from Avenue Q in which he is starring on Broadway...but maybe he could take a Tuesday night off??

If you mean for recording - use him!

Here are my suggestions:

John Lloyd Young
Barret Foa
Norbert Leo Butz
LaChanze (the woman from The Color Purple)
Matt Caplan


That's all I can think of for now!!

Norbert Leo Butz? An excellent idea!

I'm sure Jason Robert Brown has never heard of him.
