Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3 soundtrack guide: A complete list of the music in the CTV drama's latest chapter

If there’s one thing Sullivan’s Crossing does well besides tugging at your heartstrings and showcasing Nova Scotia’s coastal charm, it’s assembling a killer soundtrack. The CTV series returned for Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3 with heartfelt storylines, simmering romance, and, yes, a playlist that expertly hits you with a soulful ballad or a haunting indie tune at just the right moment. And let’s be honest — half the reason we need tissues isn’t just the plot twists; it’s the music.

In the first episode, “New Beginnings,” viewers see Maggie try to fix her life and her relationship with Cal amid the heaviness of her past. The music accompanying the scene captures and lifts this emotional weariness, emphasizing the feeling throughout the episode. As a result, the show's soundtrack acts as a subtle storyteller, revealing what the characters desperately want to hide through their personal monologues.

Whether it's a slow dance by the fire truck or a quiet breakdown behind the Outpost’s counter, Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3 captures the power of a well-placed song. And for fans who’ve been frantically Googling lyrics during emotional scenes, we’ve got you covered with this complete breakdown of the standout tracks so far.

A fresh start, with familiar voices for Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3

The episode begins with “Shelter” by Margot Todd, a soft, introspective song that gently eases viewers into the Crossing’s rhythm. It highlights Maggie’s move from Boston and her search for sanctuary — both physically and emotionally — in Nova Scotia. The music has a calm-before-the-storm feel that matches her uncertain return. It's gentle but tinged with tension, establishing the emotional stakes before any dialogue takes over.

Another song that hits hard is “Hollow (Everything)” by Jake Etheridge, played during a flashback to Maggie’s time in the hospital. The song, still unreleased at the time of writing, is already stirring buzz online — fans are clamoring for a release, and we understand why. The lyrics are filled with vulnerability, echoing Maggie’s inner trauma. Etheridge’s raw vocals paired with minimalist instrumentation make this an instant standout in the Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3 soundtrack guide.

Love, longing, and fire truck kisses

When it comes to romance, the show doesn’t hold back — and neither does its music supervisor, Lindsay Wolfington (yes, the Wolfington from One Tree Hill and Virgin River). Enter “Boundless Love” by Jill Andrews, which plays during a pivotal moment at the end of the episode. It’s tender, cinematic, and the kind of track you’ll probably add to your sad girl autumn playlist. Jill Andrews has a talent for matching emotional crescendos, and this song perfectly captures the mood.

Fans online are also buzzing about an unidentified track during the steamy fire truck scene with Rafe and Sydney — lyrics include,
