A new Wes Anderson tribute album is set for release next year.
I Saved Latin! is a two-CD collection of songs taken from director Anderson’s films, including tracks by bands such as The Rolling Stones, John Lennon, David Bowie and The Velvet Underground. Artists contributing covers include Black Francis and Kristin Hersh.
All of the songs included on the album are taken from the soundtracks to Anderson’s films: The Royal Tenenbaums, Rushmore, The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou, The Darjeeling Limited, Fantastic Mr Fox and Bottle Rocket.
Last week, Anderson released a new short film, Castello Cavalcanti. You can watch it here.
