The Lost Boys Drops New Single “Superpower” From Cast Album

THE LOST BOYS, “The Best New Musical on Broadway” (The Washington Post, New York Post), is now the most Tony Award-Winning New Musical on Broadway. In celebration of Gay Pride Month and in partnership with the show’s producers James Carpinello, Marcus Chait, and Patrick Wilson, Atlantic Records has dropped “Superpower,” an advance track from THE LOST BOYS (Original Broadway Cast Recording). Performed by Benjamin Pajak (as Sam), “Superpower” is available now at all DSPS and streaming services here.

“I've had so many people come up to me, especially kids, saying that they've seen themselves represented on stage in that number and as an actor and as a performer, that's the best compliment you could ever get,” Pajak shared with Gold Derby. “I know that that's all I ever wanted.”

"The story of someone's queerness being what makes them special has kind of been told," The Rescues band member AG previously told Gold Derby. "We wanted to write an elevated story about how your superpower isn't being gay, it's because you're different and being gay is part of being different. That was what was personally exciting to me as a gay person writing that song: Sam isn't defined by being gay, it's just part of who he is."

THE LOST BOYS (Original Broadway Cast Recording), the official companion to the 12-time Tony Award-nominated Broadway smash features music and lyrics by 2026 two-time Tony Award nominees The Rescues will be released digitally on Friday July 24th. The album is produced by The Rescues (Kyler England, AG, Gabriel Mann) alongside Ethan Popp, recorded by Ian Kagey, and mixed by Richard Furch. Fans can pre-order the full Cast Recording here. Performed by the Tony Award®-winning Broadway production’s LJ Benet (as Michael) and Maria Wirries (as Star), the show-stopping romantic ballad, “Now, Forever,” was also recently released and is available to listen to here.
