Hollywood Records has released
The Supremes At Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat (Original Soundtrack) by composer Kathryn Bostic. The album is available now, on digital platforms, coinciding with the film’s release on Hulu.
In addition, Hollywood Records has released the newest episode of their music docuseries, The Big Score. This episode sees composer Kathryn Bostic bring her soulful artistry to life with her score for Searchlight’s The Supremes At Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat. Drawing from her jazz and classical background, Bostic emphasizes serving the film’s story and characters, particularly focusing on Barbara Jean’s journey of abandonment and growth. Her orchestral score blends raw blues influences to reflect the characters’ emotional depth and evolution, using vocal textures to convey trauma. Bostic’s music evolves as friendships deepen, the score crescendos into a jubilant, blues-filled climax, celebrating the powerful bond of sisterhood that defines the characters’ lives. Scroll down to watch the episode.
Bostic reflects on the music, “The score reflects the growing friendship of the three main characters; Clarice, Odette and Barbara-Jean as they explore challenges and triumphs within their own lives. I chose a simple melody that grows in variations and mood to reflect their personal catharsis that inevitably tests their friendship as well. Instrumentation is primarily orchestral and piano in addition to some bluesy guitar, vocal and bass motifs. I wanted the score to support this brilliant cast and elevate their dynamic performance in very subtle ways.”
