Hollywood Records and Searchlight Pictures are excited to announce the April 12 release of The Greatest Hits (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) 2-LP color vinyl album and (Original Score Soundtrack) digital album with music and score by Academy Award® nominated composer, musician and Son Lux founding member Ryan Lott (Everything Everywhere All at Once). Get a first listen, ahead of the soundtrack release, with this special 4-song score sampler available (HERE). The 2-LP Violet and Aqua colored vinyl album is available now for pre-order (HERE) and features the original song, “Never Lost,” by Grammy Award® winning artist Nelly Furtado (written by Nelly Furtado and Ryan Lott), and music from Roxy Music, Beach House, Tune-Yards, NEIL FRANCES, Peggy Lee, and more. The film is available in select theaters on April 5 and will stream on Hulu starting April 12.
Ryan Lott comments on the score, “I loved working on this film with Ned, our second together. He’s so receptive to the emotional resonances that music creates inside him and stays in tune with those frequencies. His insights allowed me to remain intuitive throughout, even when many of the things the score had to accomplish were quite technical.
While our protagonist experiences a different kind of metaphysical impact of music in her life than I do, it’s akin to the transporting inebriation that I’ve always felt from music. Scoring those experiences to capture that kind of heightened, altered state, weaving between and within great songs by other artists, was its own transporting experience for me.”
Ned Benson, The Greatest Hits Writer, Director, and Executive Soundtrack Album Producer, added, “I am haunted by music. It’s my partner in crime when I write or when I drive around LA. It’s the pile of records on my shelves and floor that gets me up in the morning and reminds me to live. To me, there’s no better self-medication than getting lost in a song. So, this movie, and this soundtrack, was a love letter to music and its ability to not only take us back in time, but to remind us to live in the moment.”
ABOUT THE FILM
Harriet (Lucy Boynton) finds art imitating life when she discovers certain songs can transport her back in time – literally. While she relives the past through romantic memories of her former boyfriend (David Corenswet), her time travelling collides with a burgeoning new love interest in the present (Justin H. Min). As she takes her journey through the hypnotic connection between music and memory, she wonders – even if she could change the past, should she?
Directed by Ned Benson. Screenplay by Ned Benson. Produced by Michael London, p.g.a., and Shannon Gaulding, p.g.a., Stephanie Davis, Cassandra Kulukundis, and Ned Benson, p.g.a.

ABOUT RYAN LOTT
Ryan Lott is an Academy Award ® & BAFTA-nominated composer, producer, and performer. His feature film scores include The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (2014), Paper Towns (2015), and Mean Dreams (2017), and arrangements for several others, most notably the iconic sci-fi film Looper (2012), for which Ryan was also pianist and instrument designer. He is also the leadman of the band Son Lux.
He is frequently commissioned by new music ensembles, including eighth blackbird (Lott contributed to their GRAMMY-winning 2015 release Filament), GRAMMY winners Third Coast Percussion, and yMusic, who enlisted Lott to compose their 2017 release First. Other commissions include an arrangement of “Peace Like A River” for Paul Simon, and a new orchestral work, “The Swift & the Storm,” for the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. He has several releases under his own name, including the learning structures cycle and the original Tell Me Why game soundtrack, heralded as “the new gold standard for trans characters in games.”
Son Lux strives to question deeply held assumptions about how music is made and re-construct it from a molecular level. What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. The trio strengthened their chemistry and honed their collective intuition while creating, releasing, and touring their collaborative recordings. A carefully cultivated musical language rooted in curiosity and balancing opposites largely eschews genre and structural conventions. And yet, the band remains audibly indebted to iconoclastic artists in soul, hip-hop, and experimental improvisation who themselves carved new paths forward. Distilling these varied influences, Son Lux searches for equilibrium of raw emotional intimacy and meticulous electronic constructions.
As a band, Son Lux scored the latest Daniels film for A24, Everything Everywhere All at Once earning them two Academy Award nominations and a BAFTA nomination. The full score album features new collaborations with Mitski, David Byrne, Randy Newman, and Moses Sumney, among others.
