Andrew Bird's New Album - NORMAN Soundtrack

For any Andrew Bird fans out there, Andrew Bird scored and wrote some new songs for a film I wrote called NORMAN. The soundtrack releases on October 11th, 2011 (10 days before the film's release) and has his score, new songs and also features music from The Blow, Wolf Parade, Richard Swift, and Chad VanGaalen.

Here's a link on some preliminary info about the album.

And if you're interested in knowing more about the movie, there's a thread over in Movie Talk all about it!

Yeah, I'm excited about this.

TLwizard, if you ever get a chance to talk with Bird tell him to put Dr. Stringz on an album please.

I gotta say (I know I'm biased) but I think all the music's great. And I had never heard Chad VanGaalen before seeing the movie, but I really liked what I heard of him as well.

If you're interested in buying the soundtrack, the movie has a kickstarter page to raise some money and at the $50 contribution level you get a copy of the soundtrack (plus some other goodies.)

Heard the new version of the song Wolf Parade has on there. Nice stuff.

Re: Andrew Bird's New Album - NORMAN Soundtrack

Released yesterday and sounds fantastic! (My humble non-biased opinion.)

Looks like you can stream it on spotify: http://open.spotify.com/album/3NJGnPkyZyuIoZeIEDDfxS

Obviously also available on Amazon, Itunes and everywhere else.

I will say this is the first CD that I have purchased in a really long time, but I thought it was worth having the physical copy.
