'This Is Us (Music from the Series)', Featuring Top Songs from NBC Hit Show's First Season, Available September 15 from UMe

Nominated for 10 Emmy Awards including Outstanding Drama Series, "This Is Us" chronicles the Pearson family across the decades: from Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) and Rebecca (Mandy Moore) as young parents in the 1980s and 1990s to their now adult kids Kevin (Justin Hartley), Kate (Chrissy Metz) and Randall (Sterling K. Brown) searching for love, fulfillment and healing in the present day. This grounded, life-affirming dramedy reveals how the events in our lives – both big and small – impact who we become, and how the connections we share with each other can transcend time, distance and even death. Chris Sullivan, Susan Kelechi Watson and Ron Cephas Jones also star. "This Is Us" Season 2 premieres Tuesday, September 26 at 9pm on NBC.

The soundtrack opens with "Death With Dignity" by Sufjan Stevens, instantly recognizable as a tone-setting music cue from the series' debut episode, and concludes with "This Is Us Score Suite" by Khosla. Also featured is a rare cover version of Peter Gabriel's "Come Talk To Me" by Khosla's critically acclaimed band Goldspot, which has been praised by Gabriel himself, and "We Can Always Come Back To This," the original song composed by Khosla and Chris Pierce, performed by Brian Tyree Henry in Season 1's pivotal "Memphis" episode. The soulful, Stax-inspired song connected with the show's audience, topping Billboard's Blues Singles chart at No. 1 for four consecutive weeks and reaching No. 12 on iTunes' Top 100 Songs chart.

In continuing with the personal theme of familial relationships of the show, Goldspot's "Evergreen Cassette (Tape Mix)" draws on Khosla's early childhood experience of living in India with his grandparents while his parents were in the U.S., working and attending graduate school. His only form of communication with his parents was being sent an evergreen-colored cassette tape by his mother, who would speak to him, sing songs and tell him stories. "This Is Us" creator Dan Fogelman was an early fan and supporter of Goldspot.

This Is Us: The Complete First Season DVD includes all 18 episodes as well as the companion series, "The Aftershow," that explores the emotional dramatic performances with the cast and creators. Each DVD comes with a free 8x8 Shutterfly Photo Book ($29.99 Value) Offer. Turn your favorite memories into a "This Is Us" photo book everyone can cherish.

From the writer and directors of Crazy, Stupid, Love, the team of Dan Fogelman, John Requa and Glenn Ficarra come together again for "This Is Us." 

Dan Fogelman, Jess Rosenthal, Ken Olin, John Requa, Glenn Ficarra, Charlie Gogolak, Isaac Aptaker, Elizabeth Berger executive produce. "This Is Us" is produced by 20th Century Fox Television.
