Milan Records today debuts “SAVING GRACE,” the main title theme to the hugely anticipated new series SPIDER-NOIR, performed by southern soul singer and songwriter KIRBY and produced by OAK FELDER – listen here. The track arrives as the lead single to the Prime Original Series Soundtrack, which features an original score by composers KRIS BOWERS and MICHAEL DEAN PARSONS as well as songs performed and heard throughout the series – preorder is available now ahead of the album’s full release on Wednesday, May 27.
Starring Nicolas Cage as a private investigator grappling with his superhero past in 1930s New York, Spider-Noir reimagines the iconic Marvel superhero through a classically noir lens. Setting the tone for this shadowy new world is KIRBY’s main title theme, her soulful vocals and producer Oak Felder’s dramatic, jazz-tinged instrumentation evoking the timeless sound of classic noir cinema. Also making its debut today is the single’s music video, which pairs a powerhouse performance from KIRBY with footage from the series, stylized to echo the look and feel of a comic book brought to life – watch here. Meanwhile, Kris Bowers and Michael Dean Parsons have co-composed music that pushes the orchestral palette—drawing from classic Noir and superhero canon to ground the score in melodic themes built to character and story, with a sonic identity entirely its own.
Bowers and Parsons said in a joint statement, “We drew from classic noir and superhero scoring traditions, but the goal was always to use these as part of a broader toolkit to build something inseparable from the unexpected and singular world of Spider-Noir itself. The score is rooted in themes, with each character defined through a hummable melody, short motifs, and textural elements designed to be combined, transformed, and evolved as the story unfolds. The result is a sound that freely blends orchestra with experimental electronics, theremin, electric guitar, percussion made from NYC street sounds, a broken piano, and even penny whistle.”
Produced by Sony Pictures Television exclusively for MGM+ and Prime Video, Spider-Noir will premiere Monday, May 25 on MGM+’s linear channel and globally on Prime Video Wednesday, May 27, across more than 240 countries and territories.
