Billy Goat song demo Instrumental Version
EmberFrames is pleased to release the instrumental version of the "Billy Goat" song demo, one of several original numbers written by Nicholas Franghias for THE BILLY GOAT CURSE movie musical, which is currently in development. The exquisite demo orchestration is by Jeremy Franklin Goodman.
The material is based on the inspirational biography of the colorful Billy "Goat" Sianis, a Chicago immigrant tavern owner. The story unveils the origins of the notorious Curse; the events that led Billy to defend his pet goat by cursing the Chicago Cubs to never again win a World Series. The narrative explores themes of love, loyalty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The song takes place early in the story. It is sung by the lead character Billy to the baby goat, Murphy, making dreams and plans for the future.
