Umbrella Academy Soundtrack

The second season of The Umbrella Academy hit Netflix last Thursday and while fans were excited for the show's return to find out what's next for Hargreeves siblings, they were also excited for the season's soundtrack. The series' first season had a great batch of songs for fans to tap their toes to and the second season followed suit -- something fans were more than happy to take to social media to talk about just how great this second round of tunes is.

Umbrella Academy creator Way and his ex-My Chem bandmate Ray Toro recorded two covers for the TUA soundtrack: a buoyant take on The Turtles' Happy Together which plays out over the end of episode five, and this version of the Simon & Garfunkel classic. 32 'Umbrella Academy' Songs That Are Honestly Way Too Good. So, you're probably here because you know that the soundtrack for The Umbrella Academy is seriously SO GOOD. Tap to play or pause. The soundtrack to 'The Umbrella Academy' (TV Series) is pretty good. This is another pretty good soundtrack / score from Jeff Russo. It is solid, well-done and decently entertaining. Netflix just dropped The Umbrella Academy soundtrack on Spotify and it is full of bangers. The soundtrack features covers of Simon and Garfunkel and the Turtles done by Gerard Way and Ray Toro.

That fans are loving the soundtrack for the second season of The Umbrella Academy is, in a sense, a testament to the process that series showrunner Steve Blackman goes through in deciding what music gets used. He told ComicBook.com that he thinks of music as a character in the show -- and he even puts the music in the script.

'I'd say 90% of the songs, I've already decided before we ever get to this phase,' Blackman told ComicBook.com in an exclusive interview. 'I put them in the script, I encourage my writers to do it. Ultimately, I think music is a character in the show. I love music, music is my life, so I'm very sure about songs. Sometimes I have a song in my mind and then I know how to write the scene, rather than playing music that invokes emotion.'

He continued, 'I do it the other way, but also I know a lot of songs that I think, I like to counterpoint with what's going on, so sometimes we'll put like 'My Way' by Sinatra over the doomsday nuke scene, and you're like, 'How do they fit?' But they somehow magically do, and that's something we like to do in the show, that I think we do really originally. But I love picking those songs, and I have a great music supervisor who works with me too, on that.'

Read on for just how much fans are loving the soundtrack to the second season of The Umbrella Academy.

Both seasons of The Umbrella Academy are now streaming on Netflix.

The Umbrella Academy is back on Netflix with season 2 and promises to have just as much musical goodness as the first season. Here’s a complete recap of every song featured in The Umbrella Academy thus far (complete season 2 still to be added) and a look behind who’s involved with the music in the show.

It shouldn’t come as a huge surprise the series is so musical given the show comes from Gerard Way, the frontman for My Chemical Romance who is still regularly producing songs under the banner.

Jeff Russo acts as the composer for the series, however. His incredible resume is comprised of titles like FX’s Fargo, Star Trek: Picard, Altered Carbon, Power and Treadstone.

Academy

Before we dive into the two soundtracks for each season, Netflix has set up an official seasons 1 & 2 playlists. It doesn’t feature every song that’s found in the series throughout but does provide an excellent taster into the series including an exclusive introduction from the cast too.

Season 2 has also been blessed with a brand new song from the My Chemical Romance lead himself exclusive to the series.

It features the vocals of Judith Hill and the music video has many connections to The Umbrella Academy, see if you can spot them all below.
