The Octopus Project Tapped A Grunting Riley Keough & Singing Plants When Scoring ‘Sasquatch Sunset’ – Sound & Screen Film

The Octopus Project tapped a grunting Riley Keough & singing plants when scoring ‘Sasquatch Sunset’.

After a live performance of the song “The Creatures of Nature” from Sasquatch Sunset at Deadline’s Sound & Screen event, the film’s composers, risk-taking band The Octopus Project, revealed that they also recorded a version relayed entirely in bigfoot grunts recorded by the film’s leading lady, actress Riley Keough, who sang English language lyrics for the song. The film from the quirky, adventurous directing duo the Zellner Bros. (David and Nathan Zellner), features Keough and Jesse Eisenberg as members of a roaming, dwindling tribe of sasquatches marked the latest collaboration between the siblings and the band, who’ve worked together on numerous projects. The Octopus Project and Zellner Bros. share a long, symbiotic history together, well before the group provided the score for the sibling’s 2018 film Damsel.
