The wild West is heading to your headphones as Bronco Billy The Musical gears up for a live cast album release on 24 October.
Recorded during its 2024 run at London’s Charing Cross Theatre, the album captures all the high-energy heart and humour of the Clint Eastwood-inspired stage show.
The opening track Ride With Us is already available to stream with pre-orders for the full record, released via Yellow Sound Label, now open.
This West End adaptation, which ran in 2024, featured a cast led by Tarinn Callender as Bronco Billy, Emily Benjamin as Antoinetteand Victoria Hamilton-Barritt as Constance.
Backing the vocals is a live band featuring music director Marcus Carter on piano, joined by Nick Anderson, Kit Craig Lowden, Nick Carter, Lewis Dunsmore, and Ayse Osman.
Based on the 1980 film starring and directed by Clint Eastwood, the stage version sticks close to its roots with a book by original screenwriter Dennis Hackin and a country-tinged score by Chip Rosenbloom and John Torres, with additional lyrics by Michele Brourman.
The show made its world premiere in Los Angeles in 2019, winning Ovation Awards for Best Book and Lyrics, before crossing the Atlantic and lighting up the West End under the direction of Hunter Bird.
Producer Gary Grossman said: “We are beyond thrilled to share the heart and spirit of Bronco Billy with audiences everywhere through this live cast recording.
“Capturing the energy, humor, and heart of our acclaimed London production, this album is a celebration of the extraordinary talent on and off the stage. Whether you’ve seen the show or are discovering it for the first time, we hope this recording brings the wild, wonderful world of Bronco Billy to life for you—wherever you are.”
