Nick Thorburn (best known as the frontman of the rock bands Islands & The Unicorns) & music producer/composer Patrick Ford have written the main title theme for the new Peacock original series The Paper. The track, entitled Song from the Ninth Floor, will be released as a digital single tomorrow, September 5 by Lakeshore Records (visit Amazon or any other major digital music services to stream/download). The Paper is created by Greg Daniels and stars Domhnall Gleeson, Sabrina Impacciatore, Chelsea Frei, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Melvin Gregg, Alex Edelman, Tim Key, Ramona Young and Oscar Nuñez. The comedy follows the documentary crew that immortalized Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton branch in NBC’s The Office as they find a new subject when they discover a historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it. Thorburn has previously scored several features, including Ingrid Goes West & Only the Young and also composed the themes for Amazon’s The New Yorker Presents and Sarah Koenig’s Serial podcast. The full first season of The Paper is premiering today on Peacock and a second season has already been ordered.
