#1 New York Times bestselling author Jason Reynolds transports us back to the early 2000s in Soundtrack, an audiobook original about New York City teens whose talent and love of music lift them to unexpected heights.

Stuy wanted to play the drums just like his mom, a founding member of the punk band The Bed-Stuy Magic Dusters. With his mother as his teacher, Stuy starts busking in the subway with his friends Dunks, Alexis, Keith, and Frankie under the name Soundtrack. To everyone’s surprise, including their own, they become an underground sensation, and their success changes the course of their lives.

Read by a full cast and with an original score by Grammy-winning composer Justin Ellington, award-winning author Jason Reynolds shows us a found family coming of age in a wonderfully complex city.

Wonderfully Done

this story from beginning to end was just unforgettable. I saw a preview from Instagram and came right over. it did not disappoint. I love the whole back story and all of the drama. Famous Frankie will never be forgotten. It felt so real and authentic that I wanted to look then up & go to a concert. I want more. I listened to it straight through. It was so intense. Thanx to every one who was apart of this movie 4 my ears.

Wow

From the story to the music to the historical context, this performance was stellar. This performance is embodied everything an audiobook should be!

immaculately written

This book put me in the middle of the city and for that I'm greatful.

Newfound appreciation for music and YA fiction

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It’s so hard not to fall in love with the characters. I found myself getting emotional multiple times. This is such a necessary story. Thank you 🙌🏾

Also, as a 31 y/o, I haven’t read YA fiction is years but this was SO beautifully explored and executed!

The Music

I loved this story and I moved with it as if I were dancing or watching a movie
