The Music from Big Sky’s Season 1 Finale (air date 5/18/2021)

Big Sky is one of the best, if not THE best show on TV right now. This is thanks in part to the acting, of course, but how about the music? Songs always seem to be perfectly placed in the scenes. I’ve written about past episodes which you can check at the bottom of this post, but for now, let’s get to the music playing as the soundtrack of episode 16, the season 1 finale.


Kings of Leon “100,000 People” – This song plays very briefly underneath a conversation between Arthur/Ronald and his girlfriend Scarlet. My only complaint is that it was not enough of a great band. Check out the full track below.


Johnny Mathis “Chances Are” – This song plays while Ronald and agent Mark are talking in a jail/holding facility. Ronald is creepy, and I’ll leave it at that. Meanwhile, with the song still playing, Scarlet makes a mysterious phone call.


Heart “Crazy On You” – The final montage includes this song playing as the action and basically the tease for next season unfolds. No spoilers but part of the scene is Cassie walking with a high-powered rifle and I gotta say, yes, yes, and yes! In the words of another Heart song, Cassie is a “barracuda” you do NOT want to mess with.
