With its first season Apple TV+’s The Buccaneers made a name for itself with its focus on all women musicians featured in the show’s soundtrack, with needle drops like Taylor Swift’s “Nothing New,” Japanese Breakfast’s “Be Sweet,” Brandi Carlile’s “Broken Horses” and Bikini Kill’s “Rebel Girl” featured in the first season, to name a few. Swift’s “Nothing New” was used in the scene where Nan St. George (Kristine Frøseth) and her friends made their society debut, similar to the procession of Netflix’s Bridgerton in white dresses and feathers.

Later on in the first season, songs like “Kissing Lessons” by Lucy Dacus, “Cedar” by Gracie Abrams,” “Bite the Hand” by boygenius, “Want Want” by Maggie Rogers” and another Taylor Swift anthem, “Long Live” highlighted the high stakes of Nan’s decisions. Season 2 continues in the vein of mostly women artsits featured on the soundtrack. It also features Chloé Caillet’s remix of “North American Scum” by the Emily Kokal featuring Miya Folick. Jennifer Smuckler and Christina Azarian serve as music leads on the show, and Stella Mozgawa worked as executive music producer, collaborating with artists for certain songs featured in later episodes.
