The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes’ soundtrack will also feature tracks from Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, and The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes star Rachel Zegler.

A synopsis for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, which hits theaters on November 17, reads:

The latest release in the blockbuster franchise, THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS & SNAKES takes place 64 years before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as tribute, and decades before Coriolanus Snow became the tyrannical president of Panem. The new film stars Zegler alongside Tom Blyth, Peter Dinklage, Hunter Schafer, Josh Andrés Rivera, Jason Schwartzman, and Viola Davis.

THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS & SNAKES follows a young Coriolanus (Blyth) who is the last hope for his failing lineage, the once-proud Snow family that has fallen from grace in a post-war Capitol. With his livelihood threatened, Snow is reluctantly assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird, a tribute from the impoverished District 12. But after Lucy Gray’s charm captivates the audience of Panem, Snow sees an opportunity to shift their fates. With everything he has worked for hanging in the balance, Snow unites with Lucy Gray to turn the odds in their favor. Battling his instincts for both good and evil, Snow sets out on a race against time to survive and reveal if he will ultimately become a songbird or a snake.

Next year, Rodrigo will embark on a massive sold-out headlining tour across North America and Europe in support of their new studio album Guts. The trek features multiple stops at Madison Square Garden, Kia Forum, and The O2.
