Why are hit TV shows using Americana for their theme tunes?
The credits to the forthcoming TV drama series New Blood feature a raw Deep South bluesy soundtrack, a trick learned from some of the most talked-about series in recent years, from The Sopranos to Breaking Bad and True Detective. Samira Ahmed and Ben Wardle consider the appeal of Americana music to today's TV directors.
First broadcast on Front Row, 1 June 2016.
