The full details of the soundtrack album for Tyler Perry’s drama A Jazzman’s Blues have been revealed. The album features the songs from the movie performed by cast members Joshua Boone, Amirah Vann and Austin Scott. Academy Award nominee Terence Blanchard (BlacKkKlansman, Malcolm X, 25th Hour) has arranged and produced most of the songs. Also included are two tracks from the movie’s original score composed by Aaron Zigman (The Notebook, John Q), as well as the original song Paper Airplanes (co-written by Blanchard and performed by Ruth B.), which has already been released as a digital single last month. The soundtrack will be released digitally tomorrow, September 23 by Milan Records and will be available to stream/download on Amazon and any other major digital music services. A separate score album is also coming out on the same day. A Jazzman’s Blues is written, directed and produced by Perry and also stars Solea Pfeiffer, Brent Antonello, Brad Benedict, Milauna Jemai Jackson, Lana Young, Kario Marcel and Ryan Eggold. The drama opened in select theaters last week and will premiere tomorrow on Netflix.
