Dead Can Dance's Lisa Gerrard Joins Film-Score Ranks With "Insider"
Former Dead Can Dance vocalist Lisa
Gerrard and her current collaborator,
Pieter Bourke, are providing the score for
the upcoming Al Pacino film "The Insider,"
directed by Michael Mann.
Selections from Gerrard's 1995 solo
album "The Mirror Pool" appeared in
Mann's last movie, "Heat." This time
around, the director-screenwriter (perhaps
best-known for the TV series "Miami
Vice" and the cult favorite "Manhunter")
first tapped Gerrard to provide a few
numbers to the soundtrack, which then led
to Gerrard and Bourke composing the
score for the entire film.
The soundtrack album, due out on
October 26, will also include tracks by
Massive Attack and Graeme Revell,
among others. The movie, which co-stars
Russell Crowe ("L.A. Confidential"), will
open on November 5.
Director Mann is known for pursuing
unconventional sources for his
soundtracks, having tapped the
prog-tronic band Tangerine Dream to
score his 1981 film "Thief," as well as
innovating the TV-soundtrack genre with
the top-selling "Miami Vice" album, which
he executive produced.
Along with former partner Brendan Perry,
Gerrard started up Dead Can Dance in
1981. Known for fusing traditional
instrumentation with technology and
flaunting pan-cultural, multi-generational
musical influences, the duo released nine
albums with the ethereally oriented indie
4AD before dissolving in 1998.
Gerrard and Bourke were last heard on
their highly praised album "Duality," which
was released in 1998.
