LOST – The Final Season EPs

As pop culture phenomenon “Lost” begins its sixth and final season on TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET) on ABC, fans of the ABC television series will gain a unique glimpse into the minds of characters Kate, Sawyer, Locke, Hurley and Charlie as well as the vibe of the Dharma Initiative with the release of six EPs revealing classic songs important to each of them.  Appropriately for characters stranded on a remote South Pacific island, these recordings are their “Lost tracks.” 

Each seven-track digital download LOST EP--individually titled Kate, Sawyer, Locke, Hurley, Charlie and Dharma--will be issued by Universal Enterprises (UMe) exclusively via iTunes beginning Tuesday, February 2, 2010, the same day as that for the season’s premiere episode for the popular, critically acclaimed, and Peabody, Golden Globe and Emmy Award winning series. 

“If you want to get inside the characters’ heads, and find out what inspires and motivates them, then just push play,” stated Executive Producer, Edward Kitsis regarding the Lost Tracks EPs.

The artists heard on the LOST EPs range from classic rockers The Who, Rod Stewart, Traffic, Steppenwolf and The Kinks to new wavers Squeeze, The Specials and Elvis Costello; from country legends Patsy Cline and Hank Williams to R&B giants Marvin Gaye and Etta James.  The selections, culled from the vast Universal Music Group archive, reach back to vintage gems from Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry, and ‘70s tracks from Lynyrd Skynyrd and KISS, plus contributions from more contemporary artists such as Sonic Youth, The Roots and Eels.
