Corbin Bleu Set to Show 'Another Side' With His Debut CD - to Be Released May 1

BURBANK, Calif., April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Corbin Bleu, star of Disney Channel's Jump In! and smash hit High School Musical is set to release his debut album, Another Side, on May 1 on Disney's Hollywood Records. A bonus DVD will be available on the initial shipment featuring the video for "Push It To The Limit," live performances from the sold out "High School Musical: The Concert" of "Push It To The Limit" and "Marchin'," and a personal interview with Corbin.

The album, Another Side, is an "R&B Pop album," explains Corbin, and will "show another side of me, singing in many genres." Corbin even co-wrote five of the songs; something he never imagined he could do. "I've always dabbled on my piano, but I was never serious about it," he says. "I am so excited to be doing this -- this will be the first time people will hear just my voice!"

Corbin's solo album debut comes after his fast trajectory to stardom among kids, tweens, and families. The talented performer debuted the single "Push It To The Limit" on the soundtrack to the record-breaking Disney Channel Original Movie Jump In! in which he starred (he chose the song for his solo album as well.) Its music video premiered on Disney Channel and became a viewer favorite while frequent requests drove the song to #1 on Radio Disney. The video for his new single, "Deal With It," premiered on AOL April 5, and debuted on Disney Channel April 6, delivering nearly 4 million viewers. Having wrapped principal photography on High School Musical 2 this week, Corbin will next perform at the opening ceremonies for Disney Channel Games 2007, a global event to air in June beginning on Disney Channel U.S., as well as around the world.

At age 18, Corbin is already a seasoned performer, having toured last winter on the sold out "High School Musical: The Concert." This May, Corbin reprises his crowd-pleasing performance as the tour continues in South America. This summer he will tour with Hollywood Records' Aly & AJ.

Corbin has achieved critical acclaim as well. The Los Angeles Times named him one of their "Faces to Watch in 2007" and Corbin will appear on Good Morning America May 1 and MTV's TRL on May 2. Disney.com also has exclusive content and highlights Corbin's music and videos.
