Blake Neely has composed the score for the new CBS cop drama Golden Boy. The show is created by Nicholas Wootton (NYPD Blue, Chuck) and stars Theo James, Chi McBride, Kevin Alejandro, Bonnie Somerville, Holt McCallany and Stella Maeve. The series follows an ambitious cop who becomes the youngest police commissioner in the history of New York City. Wootton is also executive producing the show Greg Berlanti who has previously worked with Neely numerous times on such shows as Everwood, Brothers & Sisters, Political Animals and the feature film Life as We Know It. Richard Shepard (The Hunting Party, The Matador) has directed the pilot episode and also serves as a producer. Golden Boy is set to premiere on February 26, 2013 and will air every Tuesday night on CBS. For updates on the drama, visit the official show website, where you can already watch the pilot episode.
Neely is also currently scoring the CW superhero series Arrow, which has already been renewed for a second season, as well as the CBS hit show The Mentalist.
I really like “Golden Boy” There was a song on tonight’s episode with a lot of chello in the scene with the sister when she found her mother working as a janitor. Something about being alone. The music was beautiful. Is it a song that is available?
Thanks.
I LOVE the theme. It is hauntingly beautiful, so simple yet great. Will miss the show and the music. Hope it will be recorded at some point, I’ll be first in line to buy.
