John Carpenter’s ‘Lost Themes II’ Album Out In April, New York City Show Scheduled For July

Famed horror director John Carpenter has been keeping busy since the release of his debut album of spooky tunes, Lost Themes, exactly one year ago today (February 3). He and son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies composed the theme to CBS animal-themed thriller Zoo, which aired for 13 episodes last summer. (It’s since been renewed for a second season.) Now comes the news that Lost Themes II is due out April 15 through Sacred Bones.

Carpenter will also play a string of live dates overseas this summer and fall, plus a night at New York City’s PlayStation Theater that’s being billed as a “live retrospective” where he’ll perform “themes from his classic films and new compositions,” per Brooklyn Vegan.
