Light of Ephrai.

Varese Sarabande will release a soundtrack album for Casey Affleck’s second feature directorial effort Light of My Life. The album features the film’s original music composed by Daniel Hart (Pete’s Dragon, The Old Man and the Gun, A Ghost Story, The Exorcist, Ain’t Them Bodies Saints). The soundtrack will be released digitally on August 16 and will be available to download on Amazon, where you can also check out audio samples. Light of My Life is written and directed by Affleck who also stars in the movie alongside Anna Pniowsky, Tom Bower and Elisabeth Moss. The drama follows a father and his young daughter as they become trapped in the woods in a post-pandemic world. The movie premiered at this year’s Berlin Film Festival and will be released in select theaters and on VOD this Friday, August 9 by Saban Films.

This month’s November Exclusive release presents a glimpse into the creation of my SoundQuest Fest set as well as two pieces that resonate with the feeling in the air right now as we transition towards the internal realms as the seasons shift.

Los Lobos might have touted themselves as “just another band from East L.A.”, but it’s quite likely that even the group’s humble members recognized that few—if any—other artists in the late 1980s rivaled their soulful music, rousing performances, and eclectically blended arrangements. While lacking the commercial status of the quintet’s subsequent La Bamba release, By the Light of the Moon stands as the band’s most enjoyable excursion into American-hued soul, penetratingly reflective lyrics, and earnest roots rock. The music making is simply extraordinary.
