The film marked Tyler's second collaboration with Baldoni after Five Feet Apart (2019).

[7] He formally consulted, Sobiech's family and described about the film and its musical approach. He further bought Sobiech's mixtapes for the musical approach, he demanded as he had to create something that fit with and responded to the folk-pop vibe of Sobiech's tunes. Tyler believed that "he wanted to celebrate Sobiech's legacy through his score, which also reflected the type of musician he would have grown into". The film incorporates Sobiech's songs, which Tyler "altered the way he had approached". He played several instruments while recording the score, including piano, harp, glockenspiel, guitar, while also provided backing vocals for few tracks. [9]

Filmtracks.com wrote "The movie required its original music to exist amongst a number of source-like placements of music that Sobiech performed and penned, with Tyler serving to help produce some of these insertions. The score, therefore, fits in between these obvious feel-good placements of song material and drives a comparatively conservative emotional mood that is not meant to guide the personality of the film so much as augment its ambience. The score on album loses some of its muster due to its intended redundancy, but that won't deter enthusiasts of the concept from loving every moment of its soft rock reverence. It's a score with undeniable heart from Tyler, but one that packs its best punch in a shorter presentation." [13]
