The Hoot soundtrack will feature five new recordings by Buffett. Buffett covers Warren Zevon's 'Werewolves of London' and Bruce Cockburn's 'Wondering Where the Lions Are', and also performs a reggae version of 'Floridays'. The soundtrack also includes a Buffett/Alan Jackson duet and a new song Buffett wrote just for the film. According to the press release issued by New Line, Coral Reefer band members are also featured on the movie's score. Other artists appearing on the "Hoot" soundtrack include Toots and the Maytals, Maroon 5, G Love, Aussie artist Ry Cuming, and Brie Larson (who also stars in the film). Mailboat. 2006.
Based on Carl Hiaasen's very cool young-adult novel of the same title, Hoot tells of a teen boy suddenly plunged into the wacky world of endangered species and Florida shenanigans. Jimmy Buffett contributes five new songs to the soundtrack, which isn't all that surprising since he coproduced the movie and his daughter Savannah Jane is credited as music supervisor. The best of his efforts are "Barefootin'," a honky-tonkin' duet with Alan Jackson, and a faithful cover of Warren Zevon¹s classic "Werewolves of London." The balance of the songs on the CD are nicely laid -back, particularly G. Love's "Back of the Bus" and Maroon 5's cover of Bill Withers's "Lovely Day" (Withers contributes background vocals, though this doesn't necessarily play in favor of Maroon 5's singer, Adam Levine). Newcomer Brie Larson (who also costars in the movie) contributes a potential hit with "Coming Around," which sounds like a gushy teen-pop take on Sheryl Crow (yes, it's a compliment). The most exciting track on the CD, however, is Toots and the Maytals' funk-reggae hybrid "Funky Kingston," and it's from 1973. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
