Let’s Eat Grandma have composed a completely original soundtrack for ‘The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself’, a new Netflix thriller.
The score is 25 tracks, and is released in full today, 28th October. It follows the release of their album, ‘Two Ribbons’, earlier this year, which Dork called a “masterpiece” in a five-star review.

The multi-talented duo, comprised of Rosa Walton and Jenny Hollingworth, said of their experience: “Working on the OST for The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself has certainly been a very informative process and a wonderful new experience which has shaped and broadened the way we write and think about music.”
“We’re always looking for ways to move forward musically, and we think being part of a bigger project with lots of other people all working creatively in different ways has been so valuable and inspiring.”
Executive producer and director of the show’s first four episodes, Colm McCarthy, praised Let’s Eat Grandma’s work: “Rosa and Jenny collaborated brilliantly, giving us an amazing score. Emotional, scary, heart-pounding, epic and personal, it is strange and evocative and a huge part of the unique identity of our show.”
“They sculpted with organic, acoustic elements and grungy electronica to make something really magical. It has the DNA of the band running through it but also feels so intrinsic to our world.”
