Nick Cave, Warren Ellis scoring “Hell Or High Water” film soundtrack

PanARMENIAN.Net - Nick Cave and Warren Ellis are scoring the soundtrack to Hell Or High Water, a film starring Jeff Bridges and directed by David Mackenzie, NME reports.

The film will be released on August 12, with the original soundtrack landing via Milan Records on the same day. It features several pieces of music by Cave and Ellis, who have previously scored the likes of The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford and The Proposition together.

The Hell Or High Water soundtrack will also feature songs by Waylon Jennings, Townes Van Zandt, Chris Stapleton, and others.

In a statement about Cave and Ellis’ music for the film, Hell Or High Water director Mackenzie said: “What I love about Nick and Warren’s film music is that it’s epic and expansive without being grandiose. For me as a filmmaker this hits a sweet spot where the score is able to have scale and emotion but not feel manipulative or overwhelming.”
