Band Of Horses are not the first musical act I associate with pro wrestling, but here we are. Head Horse Ben Bridwell has teamed with composer Jeff Cardoni on the theme music for Heels, a new Starz scripted drama starring Alexander Ludwig and Stephen Amell as "wrestler brothers who've inherited a small-time wrestling business from their late father, also a wrestler, and squabble over the best way to run the company," according to this New York Times feature. Its opening credits feature "Love In War," a sweeping, inspirational alt-rock power ballad by Bridwell and Cardoni that sounds like Band Of Horses gone full Friday Night Lights. It premiered at Billboard today and can be heard below.
