Besides Rodrigo’s effort, the soundtrack includes a number of songs performed in the film by The Hunger Games star Rachel Zegler, and new music from some of folk/Americana’s most exciting and acclaimed young artists. “Can’t Catch Me Now” follows the arrival of Rodrigo’s phenomenally successful sophomore album GUTS (a critically acclaimed LP that debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart upon its release in September).
The latest release in the blockbuster franchise, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes takes place 64 years before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as tribute, and decades before Coriolanus Snow became the tyrannical president of Panem. The new film stars Zegler alongside Tom Blyth, Peter Dinklage, Hunter Schafer, Josh Andrés Rivera, Jason Schwartzman and Viola Davis.
