Having premiered back in 2017, it’s safe to say that comedy-drama Loudermilk is having a bit of a renaissance since arriving on Netflix UK at the beginning of this month.

All three seasons are now available to stream till your heart’s content, and centre on Sam Loudermilk (Ron Livingston), a former music critic and recovering alcoholic who leads a support group in Seattle.

As a substance abuse counsellor, you’d expect Loudermilk to be empathetic and well-meaning but, instead, his usual sarcastic wit and lack of charm is precisely the reason to tune into the series. Expect lots of smart quips, heart-warming writing and the kind of easy watch that this time of year warrants.

Of course, with Loudermilk as a former music critic, the show is home to some great songs that make up an eclectic soundtrack. So, read on to find out which songs are featured in the series.

What is the opening song in Loudermilk?

In the opening credits of the episodes, the song you can hear sampled in the background is Stand on the Horizon by Franz Ferdinand.

The song was released in 2014 and features indie rock and disco punk elements, released from the band’s fourth studio album Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action.
