Soundwaves: Tulsa King Original Series Soundtrack Music by Danny Bensi & Saunder Jurriaans

Lakeshore Records has released Tulsa King S. 1-2—Original Series Soundtrack digitally, featuring music by composers Danny Bensi and Saunder Jurriaans (Tokyo Vice, Ozark). Their striking score echoes throughout and accentuates the hit drama with a modern and menacing twang. The first and second seasons of the original series that stars Sylvester Stallone and are streaming now on Paramount+.

In season two, Dwight (Stallone) and his crew continue to build up and defend their growing empire in Tulsa, but just as they get their bearings, they realize that they’re not the only ones who want to stake their claim. With looming threats from the Kansas City mob and a very powerful local businessman, Dwight struggles to keep his family and crew safe while keeping track of all his affairs. Plus, he still has unfinished business back in New York.

Note Bensi & Jurriaans: “The score for Tulsa King was a great opportunity to for us to explore music that we don’t often get to make for film and television. It blends modern orchestral and electronic elements with subtle, Western-inspired motifs often played on blues or rock instruments. It reflects the show’s blend of urban crime drama, the rugged, open landscapes of Tulsa, and also its wry humor.”
