Upcoming movie release “Lucky You” will feature Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan and Drew Barrymore on the exciting new soundtrack. The poker themed movie starring Drew Barrymore as an aspiring singer is due March 6 via Columbia and in theaters March 16 according to Billboard.

Other artists on the soundtrack include:

“Lucky Town” Bruce Springsteen
“The Fever” Bruce Springsteen
“Huck’s Tune” Bob Dylan
“The Cold Hart Truth” Drew Barrymore
“Choices” George Jones
“Maybe This Time” Liza Minnelli
“I Always Get Lucky With You” George Jones
“Let It Ride” Ryan Adams
“Viva Las Vegas” Shawn Colvin
“Positively 4th St.” Johnny Rivers
“They Ain’t Got ‘Em All” Kris Kristofferson
“Bartender’s Blues” Bonnie Raitt

Just by the brief plot description, soundtrack listing and the fact that Drew Barrymore has been cast in the starring role as a singer - this sounds like my kind of movie. Sometimes a good soundtrack alone can help to sell a movie to movie goers, and why not? If quality singers and musicians like the ones listed above have signed up, then already they’re supporting the movie just by agreeing to include their music. I can guarantee that there will be other musicians like myself looking forward to seeing a movie that we can relate to.

Let’s not forget about the interesting mix of singers on the soundtrack like the legendary George Jones, Kris Kristofferson, Bonnie Raitt, Liza Minelli, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan.

My one time experience in having a song in a movie was in the movie ‘Philadelphia’. There’s just something strange about hearing my voice in amongst such incredible actors like Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks and other musicians like Neil Young - and of course Bruce Springsteen who also contributed his award winning “Streets Of Philadelphia” to the film.

Although you can only hear me for a mere 17 seconds…it was still an honorable experience! Not only that, but it’s a good party piece for whenever it’s played on TV and the conversation usually goes something like, “Shhh here I come!”
