Gabriel Mann has been hired to score the Sundance Channel’s first hourlong scripted series Rectify. The six-part legal drama stars Abigail Spencer, Clayne Crawford, Adelaide Clements, Jonah Lotan and J. Smith Cameron. The show is created by Ray McKinnon (screenwriter of An Evening Sun and actor in FX’s Sons of Anarchy) and follows a man who is released from Death Row after spending 19 years in prison and returns to his hometown where he must readjust to his new life, including unfamiliar family members and surroundings. Mark Johnson (The Chronicle of Narnia series, Rain Man) and Melissa Bernstein (Breaking Bad) are executive producing the project with McKinnon. Rectify is set to premiere in the first quarter of 2013 on the Sundance Channel.
Mann is also currently scoring the fourth season of the ABC hit comedy Modern Family. His other previous TV scoring credits include ABC Family’s Jane By Design, Lifetime’s The Protector and the comedies Bent and The Exes.
