More subplots involving Cami, Monty and Dale follow while a possible proposal teases future romance.
The episode also brings back a richer soundtrack with five licensed tracks.Here's everything you need to know about the soundtrack of Almost a Home, and how it contributes to the plot.
The soundtrack of Landman's 'Almost a Home'
The soundtrack for Landman is curated and created by composer Andrew Lockington, who returns from Season 1 with the same mix of guitar, strings, and rugged percussion that gives the show its pulse. He built the main title and the signature themes that thread through Season 2. Working alongside him is music supervisor Andrea von Foerster, known for Yellowstone and her sharp ear for blending indie country, Americana, and vintage gems. Together, they map out every cue and needle drop, from Turnpike Troubadours to Dean Martin.
There are five songs featured in this episode, which are:
- "Ramblin'" by The Red Clay Strays
- "Do It To Myself" by Tanner Usrey
- "Taking the Long Way" by Larry Fleet
- "What's Going on In Your World" by George Strait
- "Touch and Go" by Drayton Farley, Dani Rose, and Sunny Sweeney
The episode wastes no time tightening the screws on everyone involved, and also marks a return to a fuller musical landscape after the quieter, score driven approach of Episode 2. Country Living confirms five licensed tracks, each chosen to carve out emotional contour and texture.
The Red Clay Strays kick things off with Ramblin' a familiar sound for longtime viewers since the band appeared across several episodes in Season 1. Their rough edged energy mirrors characters who are in motion but not necessarily getting anywhere. Next comes Tanner Usrey’s Do It To Myself, another returning artist whose past contributions helped define Landman’s early sound. Its introspective tone matches the episode’s self inflicted dilemmas.
Larry Fleet steps into the series for the first time with Taking the Long Way, bringing a more polished country sensibility that expands the show’s musical range. George Strait’s What’s Going on in Your World adds legacy weight, echoing the timeless country tradition the series often leans on.
The final track, Touch and Go, a collaboration between Drayton Farley, Dani Rose, and Sunny Sweeney, closes out the episode. Farley’s return paired with two women vocalists adds welcome dimension to a soundtrack that has sometimes been criticized for leaning too heavily on male artists.
