Former *NSYNC member JC Chasez is finally ready to release his first album in two decades. Surprisingly, it is a musical theater-style concept album that is inspired by Mary Shelly’s 1818 gothic-horror novel, Frankenstein. Golden Globe-winning musician Jimmy Harry shared with Chasez a theatrical adaptation of the book by his late mother, playwright Barbara Field. Chasez and Harry built off of that work on their new creative project, a 16-track concept album called Playing With Fire that will be released via Center Stage Records on October 25. Chasez sings on a number of the tracks, along with guest vocalists Cardamon Rozzi and Lily Elise. Playing With Fire marks Chasez’s first record since his 2004 solo album, Schizophrenic.

Playing With Fire touches on almost everything that I like,” Chasez shared. “I love a good sci-fi film, so you get that aspect, and I love how music can make you so emotional in a different way. Obviously, I love pop music, so I love the fact that you can sing and dance together in musical theater. It was just a great opportunity to bring all of these things that I’ve really enjoyed together into one space.” (Billboard)
