The first song Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have co-written together, “Keep Your Eyes On Me,” is available starting today as an instant grat track as part of pre-sales for the new soundtrack The Shack: Music From And Inspired By The Original Motion Picture. Another track from the movie, “Stars (The Shack Version)” by Skillet, is also available as an instant download as well. McGraw also narrates the new film and appears in it as the character “Willie.”
The companion album to the New York Times best-selling book “The Shack” also features songs by Dierks Bentley, Lady Antebellum, Brett Eldredge, NEEDTOBREATHE, Kelly Clarkson and Aloe Blacc and more, as well as Dan + Shay‘s new single, “When I Pray For You,” which is featured in a soundtrack trailer for the new movie. The song will be the third instant grat track available for download with album pre-orders, and a companion video for “When I Pray For You,” will premiere later in the month.
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s “Keep Your Eyes On Me,” which was co-penned by McGraw and Hill along with Lori McKenna and Shane McAnally, is currently featured in film trailers for the movie.
The new soundtrack will be released Feb. 24 to coincide with the nationwide release of the film from Lionsgate’s Summit Entertainment on March 3.
Before the film opens nationwide, fans can attend an exclusive “Movie Premiere Night” in select theaters on March 2, where they will see the film, followed by special behind-the-scenes footage, including a taped conversation with the actors and acoustic performance of “When I Pray For You” by Dan + Shay.
