Landman Season 2 Soundtrack: Every Song from Each New Episode

Updated for Season 2, Episode 4 “Dancing Rainbows” – premiered December 7, 2025

Why We’re Doing a Season 2 Soundtrack Guide

Season 1 of Landman quietly became a music showcase. Viewers came for the Taylor Sheridan drama and Billy Bob Thornton, then stayed to Shazam songs from Treaty Oak Revival, Turnpike Troubadours, Ella Langley, and more.

Paramount+ said the Season 1 premiere drew over 35 million viewers worldwide, making it the most-watched global debut in the streamer’s history at the time, according to Harper’s Bazaar on August 28, 2025. With that kind of audience, the music choices suddenly matter a lot more than background noise.

Now Season 2 is here, and the soundtrack has not taken a step back.

Paramount+ launched Season 2 on Sunday, November 16, 2025, with the premiere episode titled “Death and a Sunset.” New episodes roll out weekly on Sundays through January 18, 2026, for a 10-episode season, again per Harper’s Bazaar. Episodes hit the service at 12:00 a.m. ET Sundays (9:00 p.m. PT Saturday), as detailed by the New York Post on November 15, 2025.

This article will track every song and key score cue from Season 2, starting with Episode 1 and adding new episodes as they drop.


Who’s Behind the Music in Season 2?

Before we go scene by scene, it helps to know who is actually steering the sound of Landman.

According to a detailed soundtrack breakdown from Primetimer, the core music team for Season 2 is:

Andrew Lockington – Composer (Score) Lockington returns from Season 1. He wrote the show’s main title and many of the instrumental themes that carry over into Season 2. His work mixes guitar, strings, and percussion to bridge oilfield grit with character drama.

Andrea von Foerster – Music Supervisor Primetimer credits von Foerster as the music supervisor again this year. She previously worked on Yellowstone and has gained a reputation for combining independent country, Americana, and older catalog cuts in a way that feels rooted but modern.

This duo shapes every musical moment in Season 2, from the original score cues to the needle-drops by Turnpike Troubadours, Charley Crockett, Tyler Childers, and even Dean Martin.


Episode 1 Overview: “Death and a Sunset”

Season 2 opens with “Death and a Sunset,” and the music has a clear job: reconnect us to the world of Season 1 while signaling that the stakes are higher.

The episode brings back Billy Bob Thornton’s Tommy Norris and Demi Moore’s Angela. It also introduces new dynamics, including Sam Elliott’s character T L Norris, as covered in pre-season casting pieces, and continues to follow Cooper’s life on the rig and the wider Norris family.

Musically, Primetimer’s Episode 1 guide shows a blend of:

  • Lockington’s returning score themes
  • Red Dirt and Americana from Turnpike Troubadours and Charley Crockett
  • A campus-country cut from Ella Langley
  • Vintage Italian-American pop in the climactic dinner scene
  • A stark closer from Benjamin Tod

Let’s walk through each track and where it appears.


Every Song in Landman Season 2, Episode 1

1. “Wolf Song” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Opening breakfast montage

The very first piece we hear is not a chart single but part of Andrew Lockington’s score. Primetimer identifies “Wolf Song” as the cue playing under the opening breakfast montage. It is a guitar-driven piece that sets a subdued pre-dawn mood.

You can also find “Wolf Song” on the official Landman original score album, released by UMG Nashville in March 2025. Primetimer notes that album runs 23 tracks and includes several themes reused in Season 2.

The decision to lead with score rather than a recognizable radio song keeps the attention on the characters first, while still establishing a distinct sonic identity.

2. “Nothing You Can Do” – Turnpike Troubadours

Scene: Upscale oil luncheon (early luncheon sequence)

As the episode shifts into an upscale city oil luncheon, the show pulls in its first major outside band: Turnpike Troubadours.

Primetimer lists “Nothing You Can Do” as playing in this sequence. It gives a Red Dirt edge to a suit-and-tie setting, a contrast that Season 1 fans will recognize immediately. Turnpike already anchored key moments last year, including “The Housefire” in the Season 1 premiere, as Landman.tv documented in our earlier soundtrack feature.

The choice signals continuity: if you liked the Season 1 mix of big deals and bigger songs, Season 2 is staying in that lane.

3. “Game I Can’t Win” – Charley Crockett

Scene: Continues during oil luncheon

Still at the luncheon, the soundtrack moves into Charley Crockett’s “Game I Can’t Win,” according to Primetimer. Crockett’s retro-leaning country style dovetails with Tommy’s sense that every deal comes with a cost.

Running Turnpike straight into Crockett keeps the energy up but adds a more fatalistic tone. It is a smart way to use music to foreshadow that the “win” Tommy is chasing may not feel like one for long.

4. “The Devil Plies His Trade (Sn6 Ep3)” – Turnpike Troubadours

Scene: Cooper on the rig

From the boardroom, the show heads back to the field. Primetimer notes that “The Devil Plies His Trade (Sn6 Ep3)” by Turnpike Troubadours plays over Cooper’s time on the rig.

This track leans into superstition and risk, which fit the high-pressure work scenes. It also marks Turnpike’s second appearance in a single episode, underlining how closely the band’s sound is tied to Landman’s on-screen oilfields.

Saving Country Music noted something interesting about this placement: when Turnpike Troubadours released “The Devil Plies His Trade (Sn6 Ep3)” on their album The Price of Admission, some fans wondered if the cryptic title foreshadowed inclusion in a TV series. It did, though the episode numbering does not match Landman’s actual schedule.

5. “Faster Ways To Die” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Hitting oil on the rig

As the rig finally hits oil, the soundtrack switches back to Lockington. Primetimer identifies the cue as “Faster Ways To Die.”

This is another track originally released on the March 2025 UMG Nashville score album. In Episode 1, it becomes a tense, percussive driver for the key breakthrough moment.

The title and the scene pairing do a lot of work. The cue makes the discovery feel triumphant in the moment, but the name hints that chasing this kind of success carries serious risk.

6. “Landman Main Title” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Delayed opening title sequence

After the oil hit, the show finally rolls its main title sequence, and Primetimer confirms that we get the familiar “Landman Main Title” theme here.

Lockington’s main theme again anchors the episode’s identity. Hearing it after a major story beat, rather than right at the beginning, makes the opening feel earned. It also connects Season 2 directly to Season 1’s musical signature.

7. “Cowboy Friends” – Ella Langley

Scene: TCU campus sequence

Later in the hour, the story moves to TCU’s campus. Primetimer reports that Ella Langley’s “Cowboy Friends” plays over this sequence.

Langley is not new to Landman. She showed up in Season 1 with “Make Me Wanna Smoke” in Episode 2, as listed in our earlier Landman.tv soundtrack piece. Here, she returns in a different context, leaning into the way oil money and country culture bleed into college life.

It is also worth noting that Ella Langley appears on the “Landman – Songs From and Inspired by the Paramount+ Original Series (Volume I)” album, which we will cover more below. The campus placement ties the series and the album together.

8. Score cue (untitled) – Andrew Lockington

Scene: T L Norris’ arrival

Primetimer calls out a moody instrumental cue when T L Norris arrives on screen. The cue uses low strings and guitar to underline grief and guarded emotion.

The site does not list a formal track title, and Saving Country Music notes that some Season 2 score cues still do not have public names. It is reasonable, based on credits and style, to attribute this to Andrew Lockington, but the specific track name may not appear until a future score release.

9. “Love In Portofino” – Fred Buscaglione

Scene: Family dinner begins

The episode’s centerpiece is a family dinner that starts civil and ends anything but. To set the mood, the show drops in “Love In Portofino” by Fred Buscaglione, as identified by Primetimer.

This romantic Italian pop song clashes, on purpose, with the tension in the room. It suggests elegance and ease while the characters quietly prepare for confrontation. The specific choice also gives the scene a distinctive flavor instead of a generic dinner cue.

10. “Volare (Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu)” – Dean Martin

Scene: Dinner argument and blow-up

As the dinner boils over, the soundtrack goes to another classic: Dean Martin’s “Volare (Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu).” Primetimer notes that this track covers the dinner argument and resulting chaos.

The effect is almost darkly comic. Dean Martin’s upbeat, effortless delivery plays over raised voices, flying food, and family fractures. It is a sharp example of how Andrea von Foerster uses older catalog songs not just as period pieces, but as emotional counterpoints.

11. “Desire” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Post-fight bedroom scene

After the dust settles, the episode moves into a quieter bedroom scene between Tommy and Angela. Primetimer identifies the score cue as “Desire.”

“Desire” appears on the UMG Nashville score album as well. In Episode 1, it becomes the thread tying together attraction, resentment, and shared history. The melody is more intimate than earlier cues, which fits the scene’s tone.

12. “Wyoming” – Benjamin Tod

Scene: Final montage and end credits

Finally, the episode closes on “Wyoming” by Benjamin Tod, playing over the final montage and end credits, according to Primetimer.

Tod’s sparse, mournful style gives the ending a reflective, almost resigned feel. It stands in contrast to some of the more swaggering songs used earlier in the episode, suggesting that what we just watched may carry consequences we will see unfold over the next nine episodes.


Episode 2 Overview: “Sins of the Father”

Season 2’s second episode shifts into quieter territory. “Sins of the Father” follows Tommy dealing with his mother Dorothy’s funeral while Cooper strikes gold on all six of his oil wells. The episode aired on November 23, 2025, and runs 55 minutes.

Much of the runtime focuses on character drama rather than action sequences. The soundtrack reflects that change. Episode 2 features substantially fewer licensed songs than the premiere’s 12-track lineup, with only three confirmed songs compared to Episode 1’s heavy rotation.

According to Whiskey Riff’s breakdown, the episode opens with Cooper hitting big oil on his sixth well. What should have been celebration quickly turns sour when Ariana ends their relationship, telling him she cannot see a future in the chaotic, high-stakes world he is building. Meanwhile, Tommy navigates the emotional weight of burying his mother while confronting unresolved tensions with his father T.L.

Musically, the episode leans heavily on Andrew Lockington’s score to carry emotional weight. The funeral arrangements, the tense confrontation between Tommy and his father T.L., Tommy and Cooper’s emotional car conversations, and the final Gallino reveal all rely primarily on Lockington’s instrumental work rather than licensed tracks.


Every Song in Landman Season 2, Episode 2

1. “Bitin’ List” – Tyler Childers

Scene: Opening sequence on the rig

Tyler Childers makes his Landman debut with “Bitin’ List” playing over the opening rig sequence. According to Saving Country Music, the song accompanies Cooper’s continued work on the wells as Season 2’s oil boom storyline picks up steam.

Childers represents a significant addition to the Landman music roster. His Appalachian sound brings a different regional flavor compared to the Texas-heavy lineup that dominated Season 1. The placement signals that Andrea von Foerster is expanding the show’s musical geography while staying rooted in independent country.

2. “Cheers To Disagree” – Hunter Hicks

Scene: Breakfast scene (background)

Hunter Hicks appears with “Cheers To Disagree” playing in the background during a breakfast scene, as documented by Saving Country Music and Country Living. The track sits lower in the mix than the Episode 1 needle-drops, functioning more as ambient texture than a featured moment.

This quieter placement fits Episode 2’s overall approach. Where the premiere stacked songs back-to-back during the luncheon sequence, “Sins of the Father” uses music more sparingly, letting the family drama breathe.

3. “Gettin’ By (Far Out West Sessions)” – Flatland Cavalry

Scene: Tommy’s drive to the funeral

Flatland Cavalry’s “Gettin’ By (Far Out West Sessions)” scores Tommy’s drive to the funeral, according to Saving Country Music and Country Living. The song’s reflective tone matches the episode’s somber mood as Tommy prepares to bury his mother and face his estranged father.

Flatland Cavalry previously appeared in Season 1 with “Midland After Midnight” in Episode 7, a track that Billy Bob Thornton and Mark Collie co-wrote for the “Songs From and Inspired by” album. Their return in Episode 2 continues the show’s practice of bringing back artists who fit the West Texas sound.

4. Score cues – Andrew Lockington

Scenes: Funeral home, T.L. confrontation, car conversations, Gallino reveal

Episode 2’s minimal licensed song count suggests the composer’s work carries more narrative weight here than in the premiere. Lockington’s original themes likely underscore the funeral home scenes, the T.L. confrontation, Tommy and Cooper’s emotional car conversations, and the final Gallino reveal. Specific cue names have not been published as of this writing.


Episode 3 Overview: “Almost a Home”

Episode 3, titled “Almost a Home,” aired on November 30, 2025. The episode ratchets up both the financial stakes and the danger as Tommy finds himself squeezed from multiple directions.

According to Taste of Country’s recap, Tommy confronts Danny Morrell (Andy Garcia) at his Fort Worth office, demanding he leave Cooper alone. The confrontation does not go well. Morrell, who is actually the cartel figure Gallino using investments to launder drug money, tells Tommy they are partners now and he owes him for having spared his life previously.

Meanwhile, Cami (Demi Moore) discovers that her late husband Monty had taken high-dollar loans to keep M-Tex afloat, leaving the company essentially broke. Dale and his crew inspect abandoned wells Tommy is considering buying and nearly lose their lives when they encounter a leak. Dale estimates it will take two years and $20 million to address the environmental damage before the wells can become operational.

The episode also features Angela house-hunting through mansions, Ariana taking a bartending job at the Patch Cafe, and in a lighter moment, what appears to be a wedding proposal that could mean a ceremony later this season.

Musically, Episode 3 returns to a fuller soundtrack after Episode 2’s score-heavy approach. Country Living confirms five licensed tracks, bringing back familiar Landman artists while introducing some new voices.


Every Song in Landman Season 2, Episode 3

1. “Ramblin'” – The Red Clay Strays

Scene: Hog hunting, opening sequence

The Red Clay Strays return with “Ramblin'” in Episode 3, according to Saving Country Music. The song plays during the opening hog hunting sequence. The band was one of Season 1’s most-used acts, with tracks appearing in Episodes 6, 7, and elsewhere throughout the first season.

Their presence in Episode 3 continues the pattern of recycling artists who have proven effective at capturing the Landman mood. “Ramblin'” fits the episode’s themes of characters in motion, unsure of where they are headed.

2. “Do It To Myself” – Tanner Usrey

Scene: Tending bar at The Patch

Tanner Usrey appears with “Do It To Myself,” as confirmed by Saving Country Music. The song plays during scenes at The Patch bar. Usrey is another Season 1 veteran, having contributed “Take Me Home” to the series premiere and “Crossing Lines” to Episode 8.

His return in Episode 3 marks his third overall appearance in the series. The track’s self-reflective tone fits characters making choices they know will cost them.

3. “Taking the Long Way” – Larry Fleet

Scene: Tending bar at The Patch

Larry Fleet makes his Landman debut with “Taking the Long Way,” per Saving Country Music. The song also plays during Patch Cafe scenes. Fleet brings a more mainstream country sound compared to some of the Texas and Red Dirt acts that dominate the show’s playlist.

His inclusion suggests Andrea von Foerster is continuing to expand the show’s sonic palette while staying within the country and Americana framework that defines Landman’s identity.

4. “What’s Going on in Your World” – George Strait

Scene: At the Cattleman’s Club

George Strait’s “What’s Going on in Your World” appears in Episode 3 during a scene at the Cattleman’s Club, according to Saving Country Music. This represents one of the biggest legacy country names to appear on the Landman soundtrack.

Strait was previously mentioned as appearing on the “Songs From and Inspired by the Paramount+ Original Series (Volume I)” album. His presence in Episode 3 brings mainstream country credibility while his catalog cuts carry the kind of timeless quality that von Foerster has favored throughout the series.

5. “Touch and Go” – Drayton Farley and Sunny Sweeney

Scene: Ending sequence

The episode closes out its licensed music with “Touch and Go,” a collaboration between Drayton Farley and Sunny Sweeney, as listed by Saving Country Music.

Drayton Farley previously appeared in Season 1 with “Blue Collar” in Episode 9. This collaboration brings him back alongside a female voice, addressing one of the criticisms that has followed the Landman soundtrack: the relative underrepresentation of women artists.


Episode 4 Overview: “Dancing Rainbows”

Episode 4, titled “Dancing Rainbows,” aired on December 7, 2025. At 63 minutes, it is one of the longer episodes of the season and centers heavily on emotional family drama surrounding Tommy’s mother’s funeral.

According to Men’s Health’s recap, the episode opens with one of the series’ signature vehicular crashes. An M-Tex Oil trucker barrels toward a drill site at night and collides with a pickup truck containing a man dying from gas being pumped into his interior. Both are killed instantly in the fiery collision.

The bulk of the episode follows the Norris family driving to Canadian, Texas for Dorothy’s funeral. Tommy finally reveals more of his traumatic backstory: finding his mother face-down in the bathtub at age 14, reviving her with CPR, only to have her kick him in the head. That was when young Tommy packed his bag and never looked back.

T.L. delivers a heartbreaking eulogy explaining the episode’s title. He recalls seeing 17-year-old Dorothy dance through rainbows created by lawn sprinklers, describing it as the most beguiling thing he had ever seen. “But demons run faster than rainbows,” he says, “and hers caught up to her.”

Later, Tommy reveals to Ainsley that he had a baby sister who died from SIDS at four months old. The loss broke his mother, he explains, and she numbed herself with drugs and alcohol for the rest of her life.

Meanwhile, Cooper and Ariana reconcile after she accompanies him to the funeral. Rebecca has an unexpected one-night stand. And Cami decides to do business with Gallino without consulting Tommy, setting up potential conflict for future episodes.

Musically, Episode 4 returns to a fuller soundtrack with a mix of classic rock, country, and multiple Andrew Lockington score cues. The funeral setting gives Lockington’s compositions room to breathe, while the licensed tracks punctuate key transitional moments.


Every Song in Landman Season 2, Episode 4

1. “Keep Your Hands to Yourself” – Georgia Satellites

Scene: Opening sequence

Episode 4 opens with a surprise: classic rock instead of country. Georgia Satellites’ “Keep Your Hands to Yourself” kicks off the episode, according to Saving Country Music. The 1986 hit brings a different energy than the typical Landman soundtrack fare.

The choice feels intentional. The song’s playful warning about boundaries takes on darker meaning given what follows in the episode. It also signals that Andrea von Foerster is not afraid to reach outside her usual country and Americana wheelhouse when the scene calls for it.

2. Score cue (untitled) – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Setting the headstone

As the family prepares for the funeral, an instrumental cue accompanies the headstone-setting scene. Saving Country Music notes this is likely part of the original score rather than a licensed track. The specific title has not been published.

3. “Hard Luck and Circumstances” – Charley Crockett

Scene: Driving to the funeral

Charley Crockett returns with “Hard Luck and Circumstances” playing during the drive to the funeral, per Saving Country Music. This marks Crockett’s second appearance in Season 2 after “Game I Can’t Win” in Episode 1.

The song’s title alone tells you why von Foerster picked it. Crockett’s vintage-leaning sound pairs naturally with the weight Tommy carries into this family obligation. The placement also continues the show’s pattern of leaning on Crockett for transitional, contemplative moments.

4. “Not The Last One” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: At the funeral

Andrew Lockington’s “Not The Last One” plays during the funeral service itself, according to Saving Country Music. This marks one of the more prominent score placements in Season 2, underscoring T.L.’s eulogy and the family’s fractured grief.

The cue’s title carries weight in context. Tommy has already lost so much, and the episode makes clear that his mother’s death is not the last wound he will have to process.

5. “Ghosts” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Parking lot at restaurant

After the funeral, Lockington’s “Ghosts” plays during a parking lot scene at a restaurant, per Saving Country Music. The title fits the episode’s preoccupation with the past and how it haunts the present.

This is another example of how Season 2 uses Lockington’s score more prominently than Season 1 did. The composer’s work carries emotional throughlines that licensed songs cannot always provide.

6. “Time Bomb” – Whiskey Myers

Scene: Plane landing

Whiskey Myers makes their Season 2 debut with “Time Bomb” during a plane landing sequence, according to Saving Country Music. The band previously appeared in Season 1 with “Bad Medicine” in Episode 2.

Their return was expected. Whiskey Myers fits the Landman aesthetic perfectly, and “Time Bomb” carries the kind of tension that matches the show’s escalating stakes. The title also works as commentary on several characters who seem ready to explode.

7. “I’ll Never Quit You” – Andrew Lockington

Scene: Tommy and Ainsley talking

Lockington’s “I’ll Never Quit You” scores the late-night conversation between Tommy and Ainsley, per Saving Country Music. This is the scene where Tommy reveals the SIDS death of his baby sister and tries to explain his mother’s descent into addiction.

The cue’s title speaks to the father-daughter bond the scene reinforces. Despite everything, Ainsley is proud of Tommy for having empathy, and he makes clear that his family’s tragedy is not hers to carry.

8. “Wasting Time” – The Red Clay Strays

Scene: Morning radio

The Red Clay Strays close out the episode’s soundtrack with “Wasting Time” playing on a radio in the morning, according to Saving Country Music. The site notes that the band also gets mentioned by a DJ in the episode, giving them a small meta-moment within the Landman universe.

This marks The Red Clay Strays’ second appearance in Season 2 after “Ramblin'” in Episode 3. They have quietly become one of the show’s most reliable soundtrack contributors, with multiple tracks across both seasons.


How the Episode Soundtracks Connect to the Albums

Season 2’s soundtrack does not exist in a vacuum. It links directly to two official releases that fans can already stream.

1. The Original Score Album (UMG Nashville)

Earlier in March 2025, UMG Nashville released an official Landman original score album by Andrew Lockington. Primetimer reports that it includes 23 tracks, among them:

  • “Landman Main Title”
  • “Faster Ways To Die”
  • “Desire”
  • “Wolf Song”

All four of those appear in Episode 1 of Season 2, and Episode 4 adds several more identified score cues including “Not The Last One,” “Ghosts,” and “I’ll Never Quit You.” The score album means fans can live with Lockington’s themes outside the show without waiting for a Season 2-specific release.

2. “Songs From and Inspired by the Paramount+ Original Series (Volume I)”

On the song side, Entertainment Weekly reported in October 2025 that the series now has a companion album titled “Landman – Songs From and Inspired by the Paramount+ Original Series (Volume I).”

According to EW’s coverage:

  • The album includes 15 tracks.
  • Billy Bob Thornton (Tommy Norris) and Mark Collie (Sheriff Walt Joeberg) co-wrote and produced five of them.
  • Collaborators include:
    • Billy Gibbons on “Livin’ It Up In Texas”
    • Parker McCollum on “She’ll Dance For Whiskey”
    • Dwight Yoakam on “That’s What Lonely People Do”
    • Ronnie Dunn on “Blood for Black Gold” (Thornton plays drums on this track)
    • Flatland Cavalry on “Midland After Midnight,” written by Thornton and Collie

EW also notes appearances from Chris Stapleton, George Strait, Ella Langley, and The Red Clay Strays across the record.

George Strait’s appearance in Episode 3 and Ella Langley’s Episode 1 placement show how the on-screen soundtrack and the companion album are intertwined. As the season continues, expect more crossovers between episode placements and the Volume I tracklist.


How This Compares to Season 1’s Soundtrack Approach

To put Season 2’s soundtrack in context, it helps to remember where Landman started musically.

Landman.tv’s Season 1 guide, “Landman Soundtrack: A Musical Road Trip Through the Oilfields,” documented a similar pattern:

Season 1, Episode 1 (“Landman”) featured:

  • “La Diabla” – Xavi
  • “No Vacancy” – Treaty Oak Revival
  • “Debtor’s Blues” – Vincent Neil Emerson
  • “Take Me Home” – Tanner Usrey
  • “Everlasting Lover” – 49 Winchester
  • “Boomtown” – Treaty Oak Revival
  • “The Housefire” – Turnpike Troubadours

Season 1, Episode 2 (“Dreamers & Losers”) included:

  • “Bad Medicine” – Whiskey Myers
  • “Another Bad Apple” – Ward Davis
  • “Make Me Wanna Smoke” – Ella Langley
  • “Mean Old Sun” – Turnpike Troubadours
  • “Snakebite” – Brent Cobb

Whiskey Riff even built a dedicated “Landman – The Soundtrack” playlist for Season 1, updated in real time on Sunday nights.

Season 2’s first four episodes continue several patterns:

  • Returning artists: Turnpike Troubadours, Ella Langley, Flatland Cavalry, The Red Clay Strays, Tanner Usrey, Charley Crockett, and Whiskey Myers all appear again.
  • Genre mix: Red Dirt, independent country, Americana, Appalachian sounds (Tyler Childers), classic rock (Georgia Satellites), and older catalog tracks like Dean Martin and George Strait.
  • Score integration: Lockington’s themes anchor major story beats, with Episode 4 featuring four identified score cues.
  • Variable density: Episode 1 packed in 12 tracks, Episode 2 pulled back to three songs plus score, Episode 3 returned to five licensed tracks, and Episode 4 balances four licensed songs with four named score cues.

What feels new is the scale around the music: an official score album, a “songs inspired by” compilation with major country names, and a Season 2 that launched after Season 1 had already proven how powerful the soundtrack could be.


How We’ll Update This Guide (and Where Else to Listen)

    • Every song title
    • Artist
    • Scene description
  • Note which tracks tie back to the UMG score album or the Volume I inspired-by album.
  • Link out to official streaming playlists once they reflect the latest episodes.
