News about Rufus Thomas

A new song from Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis" soundtrack, Diplo and Swae Lee, has been released. The pair dropped "Tupelo Shuffle" on June 3, starring Gary Clark, Jr. and Austin Butler, who plays Elvis in the film. "Tupelo Shuffle" was released the day after Doja Cat released "Vegas," which remixes Elvis' "Hound Dog" and features a snapshot of Big Mama Thornton's original 1953 recording. On June 24, the full soundtrack will be released in theaters. As for the film itself, there's already a lot of buzz surrounding "Elvis" and its star-studded cast, including Austin Butler as the titular star and Tom Hanks as the mysterious manager. Of course, Elvis wouldn't be Elvis without the music, and a Baz Luhrmann film without a unique soundtrack would not be a Baz Luhrmann film. The list of artists on the film's soundtrack debuted on May 23, and by the looks of it, it will be a unique blend of genres and time periods. It's also a very loose group of musicians that don't appear to be closely related at first glance.
