THE HORROR OF DOLORES ROACH Soundtrack – Music By Siddhartha Khosla & Garrett Gonzales

Lakeshore Records has released THE HORROR OF DOLORES ROACH – Prime Video Original Series Soundtrack digitally today, with music by Siddhartha Khosla (RABBIT HOLE, ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING, RUNAWAYS, THIS IS US) ), and Garrett Gonzalez (RULES OF THE TRADE, co-composer THE MYSTERIOUS BENEDICT SOCIETY, A DREAM OF SPLENDOR). The film, based on the hit Spotify podcast series of the same name, is a contemporary Sweeney Todd-inspired urban legend of love, betrayal, weed, cannibalism, and survival of the fittest. When Dolores Roach (Justina Machado) is released after an unjust 16-year prison sentence, she reunites with an old stoner friend, Luis (Alejandro Hernandez), who lets her live and work as a masseuse in the basement under his empanada shop. When the promise of her newfound stability is quickly threatened, “Magic Hands” Dolores is driven to shocking extremes to survive.

The score conveys both innocence and dread utilizing piano, strings and synth to create a deliciously deceptive backdrop to the macabre dark comedy. Notes Khosla: “Dolores represents the kind of authentic and diverse stories that we are proud to help in telling; our orchestra was key in helping us create a tense, quirky, and emotional thriller score that we’re especially proud of.”

Created by Aaron Mark, based on the hit podcast of the same name, the darkly comedic drama from Amazon Studios, Blumhouse Television, Spotify, and GloNation premiered today on Prime Video.
