The upcoming movie Everything Everywhere All At Once starring Michelle Yeoh lists an amazing, diverse set of score contributors. The A24 movie due out this year has a wildly entertaining trailer showing Yeoh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Ke Huy Quan (best known as one of the Goonies) and other cast members as they fight, love and do laundry in an increasingly bizarre range of parallel universes. The movie is directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheiner, known together as Daniels, who aren’t afraid to test the limits of bizarreness as in their best known flick Swiss Army Man featuring Daniel Radcliffe and Paul Dano.
The Everything Everywhere score composition is lead by the band Son Lux who created two hours of original music for the film. Among the contributors are the incredible voices and musical tastes of Mitski and David Byrne, as well as Randy Newman and Moses Sumney. Andre Benjamin (aka André 3000) will also be contributing flute to the score. Check out their Instagram post, below.

Son Lux admitted the Everything Everywhere All At Once score was the most ambitious undertaking of their careers so far. The fact that they created two whole hours of unique music shows how much detail and attention was put into the film’s production. The Daniels’ meticulous set designs and Son Lux’s rich auditory textures fill the Everything Everywhere All At Once trailer from end to end. A jaunt through Son Lux’s catalog will show cutting edge audio experimentation in almost every sonic corner, from drummer Ian Chang’s rhythmic labyrinths to singer Ryan Lott’s pristine and surreal choral arrangements. Especially with input from Mitski, Byrne and Sumney, the Daniels likely hoped that Son Lux’s bold experimentation will lend itself to Everything Everywhere All At Once‘s reality-bending story.
