Legacy Recordings and RCA Records will release the original motion picture soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann’s EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert on Feb. 20, bringing newly restored performances, fresh remixes and original medleys of Elvis Presley’s music to fans ahead of the film’s theatrical debut.
The soundtrack features 27 tracks drawn from the upcoming concert film, which premieres with a one-week exclusive IMAX engagement on Feb. 20 before expanding to theaters nationwide Feb. 27. Digital and CD editions of the soundtrack will be available the same day as the IMAX release, with a two-LP vinyl edition scheduled for April 24.
Luhrmann’s latest project centers on newly uncovered archival footage from Presley’s landmark performances in the early 1970s, including material originally filmed for Elvis: That’s the Way It Is and Elvis on Tour. The director and his team spent years restoring long-hidden negatives and audio from the Warner Bros. vaults, collaborating with Park Road Post Production and other partners to present Presley in a new cinematic light.
The result, according to Luhrmann, is a portrait of the singer that reveals not only his legendary stage presence but also the humanity behind the icon. The film blends restored concert performances with never-before-seen footage and audio of Presley reflecting on his life, offering what Luhrmann calls an intimate look at an artist “totally at ease on stage” and deeply connected to his audience.
The soundtrack mirrors that approach by pairing classic live recordings with bold new interpretations. Among the highlights is “Wearin’ That Night Life Look,” a newly released medley that draws from four Presley songs — “Wearin’ That Loved On Look,” “Night Life,” “I, John” and “Let Yourself Go” — to create what Luhrmann describes as “an entirely new track from Elvis DNA.” The album is executive produced by the GRAMMY-nominated filmmaker, with music production by Jamieson Shaw.
Luhrmann said the remixes and medleys were inspired by a simple question: What would Elvis do if he were making music today? “He was always a musical searcher,” Luhrmann said, “looking for different flavors and sounds.”
The film and soundtrack have already generated buzz following their debut at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, where EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert received a standing ovation. Critics have praised the project for showcasing Presley’s 1970s performances as strikingly modern, capturing the singer at what many consider his most compelling.
The release marks Luhrmann’s second major exploration of Presley’s legacy, following his 2022 biopic Elvis, which earned eight Academy Award nominations and grossed nearly $300 million worldwide.
For collectors, the April vinyl edition of the soundtrack will include special color variants, including a Graceland-exclusive red marble pressing and an Amazon-exclusive translucent orange-and-yellow version.
With its mix of restored history and contemporary reimagination, the soundtrack to EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert aims to bring a new generation of listeners closer to the voice, energy and enduring influence of the King of Rock ’n’ Roll.
