Star Billy Bob Thornton teamed with country stars for the project
MCA has released Landman – Songs From and Inspired by the Paramount+ Original Series (Volume I) available on all platforms. The soundtrack for the critically acclaimed Paramount+ series Landman, created by Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, features a curated mix of iconic country, rock, and Americana artists whose music underscores the drama and grit of West Texas oilfields.
Series star and musician Billy Bob Thornton revealed the news to The Music Universe during a recent interview we conducted with The Boxmasters.
When asked if his group would be contributing songs to the new season, Thornton shared, “The Boxmasters are not, but Mark Collie is an old friend of mine, a country singer-songwriter… Collie said, ‘Hey, you and I should write a country song [for the show] and see what happens.’ The next thing you know, I’m talking to MCA about doing a soundtrack album, and before you know it, somehow we started co-writing songs with all these country singers. I have a co-write thing on the soundtrack coming out that we wrote with Ronnie Dunn, and Billy Gibbons, and Parker McCollum, and Dwight Yoakam.”
The soundtrack captures the essence of Landman’s world, blending classic and contemporary sounds that mirror the highs and lows of life on the Texas oilfields. From George Strait and Chris Stapleton’s heartfelt collaboration to Billy Gibbons’ electrifying rock performance, each track is carefully selected to amplify the storytelling and atmosphere of the series.
From honky-tonk anthems to soulful ballads, the Landman: Season 1 soundtrack captures the heart and grit of West Texas.
