283 // Interviewing Alien: Earth Composer Jeff Russo

This is a big one, folks! Our first interview with someone involved directly in the production of Alien: Earth (first of more to come ...). We're so pleased to bring you this conversation with Jeff Russo, composer of the intriguing score of FX's Alien: Earth . Jeff, a frequent Noah Hawley collaborator, has had quite the career: originally a founding member of Grammy-nominated rock band Tonic, Jeff transitioned into scoring film, television, and video games in the 2000s. He recently won an Emmy in 2017 for another Hawley collaboration: the acclaimed FX series Fargo . In today's interview, Jeff recounts in vivid detail his love for the Alien series, his creative relationship with Noah Hawley, and so much more. A special note: Jeff is premiering two tracks from Alien: Earth two days before the show premieres on FX, and he'd love to see you there!
