Wild - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

As she hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 1995, Cheryl Strayed hummed and sang along to the 'mixtape-radio-station' in her head.

In WILD, director Jean-Marc Vallee (DALLAS BUYERS CLUB), Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon (WALK THE LINE) and Academy Award nominated screenwriter Nick Hornby (AN EDUCATION) bring bestselling author Cheryl Strayed s extraordinary adventure to the screen. After years of reckless behavior, a heroin addiction and the destruction of her marriage, Strayed makes a rash decision. Haunted by memories of her mother Bobbi (Academy Award nominee Laura Dern) and with absolutely no experience, she sets out to hike more than a thousand miles on the Pacific Crest Trail all on her own. WILD powerfully reveals her terrors and pleasures --as she forges ahead on a journey that maddens, strengthens, and ultimately heals her.

The 15-track music companion gathers an array of era-spanning tracks featured in the much-anticipated film, showcasing such legendary artists as Bruce Springsteen, Simon & Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, Wings, Portishead, Lucinda Williams, and more. Wild: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack was Executive Produced by Susan Jacobs and Wild director Jean-Marc Vallée.

Wild - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is highlighted by a stunning new cover of R.E.M.'s "Walk Unafraid," performed by acclaimed Swedish folk-pop duo, First Aid Kit.
