WaterTower Music is pleased to announce 
the release of the soundtrack for season 1 of the acclaimed HBO Max® Original Series Lanterns, composed by Grammy winning artist Stephanie Economou. The soundtrack is available now on all major digital platforms.
“My primary objective in scoring “Lanterns” was to invent a distinctive musical landscape which could oscillate between gritty, moody, and intimate and grow to cosmic, powerful heights. I drew influences from 90s and early 2000s rock and trip hop (Nirvana, Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails, Mark Lanegan, Alice In Chains, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Portishead, Massive Attack) for the themes of John Stewart, Hal Jordan, Rushville, Sinestro, Zoe, and the Macons. The grunge, edge, and rebellion of the rock genre was the key to unlocking the musical tone and emotional depth of these characters. These themes combine traditional rock instrumentation (guitars, bass, drum kit, Wurlitzer, vocals) with unusual found percussion like glass bottles, scrap metal, wood sticks, log drum, and chains with warmly saturated synths, creating a tactile, dynamic sonic world.
