Original score from the 2024 action thriller feature film directed by Steven Brand, starring Willa Fitzgerald, Ron Perlman and Harvey Keitel, produced by Latigo Films and released by ITN Distribution (USA).

THE STORY: A money collector for a private investigator is hired to track down 10 million dollars stolen in a dodgy real estate deal, opening a complex can of worms.

THE SCORE: “When director Steven Brand approached me about writing the music for Joe Baby, I was excited because he made a really compelling film and he really was committed to making the score be an integral character in the film.  Recording sessions with musicians were super collaborative – we were fortunate to have him present so he could explain scenes and motivations of the characters to the musicians as we recorded.   What resulted was a score that supported the visuals and story arc that we’re all proud of.” – Stephen Edwards
