The Grammy-, Emmy- and Tony Award-winning multihyphenate will release I Forgive You on June 6. The 20-track album blends pop, R&B, Britpop, folk, gospel, wailing and yodeling. Erivo says she hopes listeners will “see the human in me. When you’re in the public eye, people forget that you are human because they see you as an entity, but not actually flesh and bone, just like everybody else.”

I Forgive You comes ahead of Erivo’s three-night performance in Christ Superstar (in which she plays Jesus) at the Hollywood Bowl in August and the one-woman Dracula at London’s West End next year.
