Behind the True Blood Soundtrack Vol 3 – ‘Gonna Be A Darkness’ & ‘Season of the Witch’

As we have previously reported, True Blood’s Volume 3 soundtrack has been nominated for a Grammy award this year.  The awards ceremony will take place on February 12 and will be broadcast on CBS at 8pm eastern. Once again True Blood’s Music Supervisor, Gary Calamar will be on hand.  We’ve already posted about two of the songs that Gary has recently highlighted in videos, “And When I Die”  and “She’s Not There” and below are the final two songs from the series of four.

The volume 3 soundtrack includes songs from both Season 3 and 4, as well as some that will be heard in Season 5.

Gary talks about wanting to make a new version of the classic Donovan hit which was featured prominently in Season 4.

Be sure to check out our new Music Section in the Season 4 episode guide that lists all the songs featured by episode with links to Amazon and ITunes.  Many of the songs didn’t make the soundtrack, so it’s worth a visit.
