Listen to “A Light in No Man’s Land” below:
“The story of Bass Reeves is an epic tale of a great American hero of justice that is finally getting told far and wide,” says Dancy. “He was a bright and shining light in a dark and difficult time, and his legacy gives us hope and inspiration to be a light ourselves. In creating the score for Lawmen: Bass Reeves, I was inspired by this very sense of hope and light. With grand, sweeping melodies, syncopated rhythms and tactile orchestral colors, the score tells the story of Bass’s journey from the pain of enslavement to becoming what Taylor Sheridan himself described to me during our first meeting: ‘A Light In No Man’s Land.”
