Jongnic Bontemps (United Skates, Murder to Mercy: The Cyntoia Brown Story, The Clark Sisters: First Ladies of Gospel) has released a soundtrack album for the PBS docu-series College Behind Bars. The album features the composer’s score from the 4-parter, which recently received two News & Documentary Emmy Award nominations. The soundtrack is now available to download/stream on Amazon, Apple Music and other digital music services.
