Rising contemporary bluegrass band Flatt Lonesome has recorded an acoustic version of the passionately popular HBO series, Game of Thrones. Flatt Lonesome was hand-picked by the staff of the SiriusXM Bluegrass Junction channel to record the theme. Arranged by Tim Surrett of the band Balsam Range, the song was recorded at the studio of Mountain Home in Arden. North Carolina.
The epic instrumental receives a treatment that moves from the familiar 3/4 tempo that fans of the show know so well, into a stirring 4/4 section.
To celebrate the highly-anticipated premiere of Season 6 of the television series Game of Thrones, SiriusXM has posted the video of Flatt Lonesome’s performance on its YouTube channel.
