Billy Bob Thornton of The Boxmasters

The Boxmasters’ Billy Bob Thornton opens up his iTunes and gives us an exclusive peek at what he’s spinning…

A Taste:

The Beatles, John Prine, Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson

The Boxmasters know how to rock. However, they do it with some serious country soul thrown in the sonic crock-pot for good measure. Blending the best and brightest elements of The Animals, The Stones, Willie Nelson and Hank Williams, The Boxmasters forge their own brand of infectious and countrified outlaw rock on their latest opus, MODBILLY.

In order to bring us closer to the music, Boxmasters main man, Billy Bob Thornton (W.R. “Bud” Thornton), shared his playlist with us in this exclusive feature.

Check out what Thornton is spinning below and pick up MODBILLY, out now!

Arielle Kebbel

Star of The Uninvited talks about her sonic favorites

A Taste:

The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones

Arielle Kebbel found inspiration from many different places for her character Alex Rydell in The Uninvited, including the musical world. She has a diverse palette for sonic treats, and she shared musical experiences, her ideas for a soundtrack, and some of her favorite bands with us in this exclusive interview.

If you were to create a soundtrack for the film, what bands would you pick and why?

Good question! It’s funny I am very sensitive to music with all of my characters. I actually spend a lot of time thinking about music ahead of time and what the character would listen to and maybe what Arielle Kebbel would listen to in order to help get me into that character. So for me, Incubus has significant meaning just because that was how I started my day every morning. It was one of the soundtracks that helped transfer me from Arielle to Alex. So now anytime I hear a couple of those songs—which I prefer to keep private—it takes me back to feeling like Alex for a minute [laughs].
