The final season of the Paramount Network series “Yellowstone“ premieres Nov. 10, 2024. With award-winning actors and a high stakes plot line anchoring the show, the contemporary Western drama has become one of the network’s most watched series. Music also plays a pivotal role in the cowboy-themed franchise. Each song fuels the storytelling written by show creator Taylor Sheridan.

Sheridan works closely with music supervisor Andrea von Foerster. Music supervisors are the masterminds behind the soundtracks to TV shows and movies. Throughout five seasons of “Yellowstone”—the fifth season is split into two parts—Sheridan and von Foerster kickstarted independent artists’ careers and gave seasoned musicians their first shot at acting.
