Hightown soundtrack guide: A complete list of the music in the Starz crime drama

Starz's crime drama, Hightown, starring Monica Raymund and Riley Voelkel, wrapped up with its final season in 2024. Created by Rebecca Cutter, this series grabbed the attention of the viewers for its gritty yet real depiction of an isolated town's crime. Hightown seasons 1 to 3 dropped on Netflix this July, and more viewers got access to the critically acclaimed series.

The series delves into the life of Jackie Quinones, a National Marine Fisheries Service Agent who encounters the body of a young woman on the beach. As they dig deeper into the investigation, dark, buried secrets and crimes related to the town's opioid problem begin to unravel. On the other hand, Quionones has struggles of her own: She is a recovering addict and has a troubled past.

Apart from the gripping narrative, the haunting and the gritty soundtracks of Hightown deserve attention. The music is composed by Dave Porter, whose evocative themes add dark and emotional depth to the crime drama.

The opening note for every episode is the same throughout the three seasons- Vacation by Textones. This raw track sets the mood before each episode, building a constant tension throughout. From The Rolling Stones to Agnes Obel, Hightown's soundtrack is quite interesting and sets the tone for the scenes.
