By Viantha NaidooAny drama series fan worth their salt knows that half the strength of these shows is the soundtrack.
The sweeping pop rock that plays during each intense scene is there to set the tone, and maybe introduce you to an awesome new artist.
This week on the box, we’ve got Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice and CSI: New York
We’ve made you a little playlist of the best songs across the board.
Winter Ghosts by JBM (From Grey’s Anatomy, Mon 21 May at 19:30 on M-Net)
During one of this season’s most poignant moments, Canada’s Jesse Marchant offers one of his signature melancholic, haunting pieces. With vocals reminiscent of My Morning Jacket’s Jim James, he had Grey’s fans the world over bawling along with Christina in this pivotal scene.
Words by Gregory Alan Isakov (From Private Practice, Mon 21 May at 21:30 on M-Net)
Johannesburg’s Gregory Alan Isakov has been living in Colorado for some years now, turning out some flawless folk that has earned him a staunch stateside following. Words plays as Amelia and Addison have a conversation, while the city transitions.
All a Dream by Norah Jones (From CSI: New York – Thurs 24 May at 21:30 on M-Net)
With her latest album, Little Broken Hearts, the gorgeous Norah Jones is back and impossible to ignore. All a Dream, a sultry blues brooder, plays during the scene in which Sheldon examines a broken porcelain cat.
