Description
2020 saw the release of the critically acclaimed "Audrey", a documentary film taking an intimate look at Audrey Hepburn's life with access to never-before-seen footage from her family's personal collection and produced by the multi award-winning team behind "McQueen" and "Churchill".
The soundtrack was composed by Alex Somers, an American composer and producer who has written and collaborated on soundtracks including "We Bought A Zoo", "How To Train Your Dragon Trilogy", "Aloha", "The Circle", "Captain Fantastic", "Shia LaBeouf's Honey Boy" and Taylor Swift's Netflix original documentary "Miss Americana". His work was first noticed in 2009 with Riceboy Sleeps, his ambient album collaboration with partner Jonsi (Sigur Ros). Following "Riceboy Sleeps", Alex co-produced Jonsi's 2010 debut solo album "Go". He then opened his own recording studio in Reykjavik where he co-produced and mixed Sigur Ros' 2013 album "Valtari", and continued to collaborate with artists Jonsi, Julianna Barwick, Johann Johannsson, Gyoa Valtysdottir, Damien Rice, Amiina, Sin Fang, Briana Marela.
Pressed on double transparent red vinyl.
"Audrey Hepburn was such a special person" Says Alex Somers. "It was my goal to tap into what made her such a one-of-a-kind soul and create a melodic and sonic accompaniment for her. Collaborating with Helena was a beautiful and rewarding experience. The music poured out and together we experimented and pushed deeper to tell Audrey's story; there is music here that is dark and there is music here that is light and uplifting, but the common thread is that it is honest and true to the spark that was Audrey."
