Jarv Is…, the band led by Jarvis Cocker, have released the soundtrack to the new BBC television series This Is Going to Hurt. The series is based on Adam Kay’s memoir, and it stars Ben Whishaw. Each episode of the show features one new song with lyrics from Cocker. “It’s our love song to the NHS,” Cocker said in a statement. Give it a listen to the This Is Going To Hurt (Original Soundtrack) below.
“As one of England’s finest lyricists and songwriters we could not have been more thrilled to have Jarvis Cocker and his band write original songs and score for This Is Going to Hurt,” director Lucy Forbes said in a statement. “His incisive wit, keen sense of observation and ability to write beautiful heartfelt melodies was the perfect fit. His music immediately intertwined with the fabric and tone of the show and took it to a whole new level, getting right to the heart of the pathos, pain and joy of working at the NHS. It was a huge privilege to work with him on this project, and I can’t imagine TIGTH without him.”
Cocker is joined in the band by Serafina Steer, Emma Smith, Andrew McKinney, Adam Betts, and Jason Buckle. Jarv Is… released their first album Beyond the Pale in 2020.
