Lakeshore Records releases Based On A True Story—Original Series Soundtrack on July 14, 2023 with music composed by Sherri Chung (Riverdale).
Chung masterfully weaves a vivid backdrop with strings and percussion to the dark comedy that accents the comedy and horror.
We’re pleased to premiere the debut track, “The Credits” below. Says Chung: “Writing the score for ‘Based On A True Story’ was as thrilling a ride as the show itself.
The score, like the story, is a cross between hilarious and horrifying–striking that tonal balance musically was an awesome challenge.”
A prolific composer, Chung made history in 2022 when she was elected as the first female governor of the Television Academy’s music branch.
A dark comedic thriller, “Based On A True Story” is about a realtor, a plumber, and a former tennis star whose lives collide in an unexpected way, exposing America’s obsession with true crime, murder, and the slow-close toilet seat
