New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Lakeshore Records and Invada Records are proud to announce the labels will be releasing the WIND RIVER - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack digitally, on vinyl, and on CD later this summer. The album features the original score by Nick Cave & Warren Ellis (HELL OR HIGH WATER, LAWLESS). WIND RIVER will play in Un Certain Regard at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival.
WIND RIVER is a chilling thriller that follows a rookie FBI agent (Elizabeth Olsen) who teams up with a local game tracker with deep community ties and a haunted past (Jeremy Renner) to investigate the murder of a local girl on a remote Native American Reservation in the hopes of solving the her mysterious death. Written and directed by Taylor Sheridan, WIND RIVER also stars Gil Birmingham, Jon Bernthal, Julia Jones, Kelsey Asbille, and James Jordan.
"The soundtrack to the beautiful WIND RIVER was first and foremost the incessant wind or the grieving silence of the snow," said the composers, Nick Cave & Warren Ellis. "Amid those elemental forces we made a kind of ghost score where voices whisper and choirs rise up and die away and electronics throb and pulse."
They added, "It was a huge pleasure to work with Taylor Sheridan as he seemed to have a unique understanding of the power of music, that it could become the second-voice in the film."
The Weinstein Company presents WIND RIVER in theaters later this summer.
