The evocative score is a mix of real and synthesized voice, layers of lush synths, plucky and resonant bells, and solo strings and piano. The music perfectly captures the feelings and emotion of the last weekend of summer, as well as supports the timelessness that the movie possesses and puts forth.

“Creating the score for this film and getting to work with this team was so wonderful and felt so familiar from the start - there was little hesitation on my end as to what I thought a good palette could be to help support the picture. Director James (Ponsoldt), editor Darrin (Navarro), and I seemed on the same page from the start, and the way James talked about the film resonated deeply with me,” said Drum & Lace.

As their last summer before middle school comes to a close, four best friends face the uncertainties of growing up and embark on their biggest adventure yet.

Summering was an Official Sundance Film Festival Selection in 2022.

Drum & Lace

Drum & Lace, aka Sofia degli Alessandri-Hultquist, is an artist and composer from Florence, Italy. Her music has been described as being genre-fluid and having a 'chameleon-like nature' (A Closer Listen), melding together sampled field recordings, lush layers of synths, chamber instruments and electronic beats. She draws inspiration from film music, music concrete and nature to create textural electronica, often blending unlikely sounds with one another.

Drum & Lace’s composition work includes music for film/tv, as well as music for dance, theater, and other mixed media. Notable film and tv work include AppleTV+ Original Series ‘Dickinson’ and Netflix Original Film ‘Night Teeth’. Her upcoming feature films include James Ponsoldt’s ‘Summering’ (Sundance 2022), John Logan’s directorial debut ‘They/Them’ for Blumhouse/Peacock, Lionsgate horror film ‘Cobweb’ and 20th Century Studios’ ‘Rosaline’, which was co-scored with Ian Hultquist.

Her debut LP Natura, released on April 8th on ambient vinyl label Past Inside the Present, features appearances from the London Contemporary Orchestra (LCO) and Italian drummer Valentina Magaletti, and has been mixed by Paul Corley (Liminal / Sigur Ros) and mastered by Joshua Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv). The LP was recorded, composed, and produced at Drum & Lace's home studio in Los Angeles, primarily during the course of winter 2020 into early 2021. Natura draws greatly from the juxtaposition of natural and artificial sounds, exploring this concept through manipulated field recordings, voice, modular synth and string ensemble.
