From the producers of Bridget Jones's Diary and Love Actually comes the heartfelt new romantic comedy Finding Emily. The list of legendary bands to emerge from Manchester goes on and on.
So naturally, music needed to play a critical role in Finding Emily. "Music was always going to play a vital role," director Alicia MacDonald says. "I wanted it to be the beating heart of the film and a key element of the emotional language. In addition to our leading lad being a struggling musician, music felt like the setting and a character itself."
The filmmakers recruited Morgan Kibby to compose the film's score - a classical pianist, cellist and vocalist, Kibby was a longtime member of the French act M83 and has worked with artists including Harry Styles and Lady Gaga.
To assemble the soundtrack, the filmmakers turned to music supervisor Iain Cooke whose credits include the Lena Dunham Netflix series Too Much and the Amy Winehouse biopic Back to Black . "Alicia's vision has always been to do something slightly different," Cooke says. "We all know the headline acts in Manchester, but it's not just about placing them within the film - it's about looking under the surface and using forgotten classics or crate digging and unearthing songs by incredible acts that have not necessarily been heard on screen before. We wanted the overall soundtrack to feel very curated and true to Manchester and the northwest of England but inherently unique and distinctive to this film."
With that in mind, Cooke chose to feature local acts like The Durutti Column and Black Grape on the soundtrack. Further helping set the film apart are appearances from groups including W.H. Lung, who perform the track "How to Walk" in the film at the famous Night and Day Cafe. The legendary music venue in the Northern Quarter hosted many of Manchester's best-known bands over the years, especially when they were still lesser known and up and coming.
