Call it "Crazy Heart" 2.0.The very familiar sounding plot follows a rising singer-songwriter (Garrett Hedlund) who starts touring with a fading country singer (Gwyneth Paltrow). Tim McGraw and Leighton Meester will also feature. So it's no surprise that the soundtrack will boast the cast showing off their vocal chops with Paltrow, Hedlund and Meester all singing songs on the disc. They are joined by decent roster of actual country talent including McGraw, Faith Hill, Lee Ann Womack, Patty Loveless, Hank Williams Jr. and more. But judging from the snippets we hear in the trailer, these will be more in the new country vein rather than in the rootsier territory of the T. Bone Burnett penned tunes of "Crazy Heart." But, for what it's worth, Paltrow's husband Chris Martin of a little band called Coldplay, wrote the song "Me and Tennessee."
It looks they want the buzz on this to start early. The soundtrack will arrive in stores on October 26th almost two months in advance of the film's limited bow on December 22nd, before going wide on January 7, 2011. Full tracklist after the jump. [AceShowbiz]
