The album features 3 original songs written for the film, including the end credit track 'Something Wild' by electronic violinist Lindsey Stirling featuring Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, 'Nobody Knows' performed by the Lumineers, plus 'The Dragon Song' performed by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy. The original score was composed by Daniel Hart ('Tumbledown,' 'Comet'). Disney's 'Pete's Dragon' opens in U.S. theaters on August 12, 2016.
In addition to the lead single 'Something Wild' by Lindsey Stirling featuring Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, Stirling also performed on the film's score. The track is also the first single from Stirling's forthcoming third studio album, 'Brave Enough'. A classically trained violinist, Lindsey has over 8 million YouTube subscribers, over 1.4 billion views on her YouTube channel, Billboard chart-topping hits and sold out tours worldwide. She is currently on a summer tour and launches her 'Brave Enough' North American tour in September.
Alternative singer-songwriter Andrew McMahon of 'Something Corporate' and 'Jack's Mannequin fame' is currently touring North America on the Weezer & Panic! at the Disco Summer Tour 2016, in addition to headline dates and festival shows. 'The Dragon Song' performed by singer-songwriter Bonnie 'Prince' Billy (Will Oldham) was written by 'Pete's Dragon' director/screenwriter David Lowery and co-screenwriter Toby Halbrooks and bookends the film.
Daniel Hart, who scored the film, is a multi-instrumental composer and performer and toured over a decade with bands from The Polyphonic Spree to St. Vincent to his own projects. His upcoming scores include the documentary 'Eating Animals' and the FOX TV series 'The Exorcist' airing this fall. The soundtrack also boasts a newly-recorded version of 'Candle On the Water' performed by the critically-acclaimed Okkervil River, fronted by singer-songwriter Will Sheff. The band will release a new album this fall.
'Pete's Dragon' is the adventure of an orphaned boy named Pete and his best friend Elliott, who just so happens to be a dragon. 'Pete's Dragon' stars Bryce Dallas Howard ('Jurassic World'), Oakes Fegley ('This is Where I Leave You'), Wes Bentley ('The Hunger Games'), Karl Urban ('Star Trek'), Oona Laurence ('Southpaw') and Oscar winner Robert Redford ('Captain America : The Winter Soldier').
