» i grew up in the appalachian hills
[a district 12/the hunger games mix] 

a selection of tracks that describe life in appalachia, especially those of coal miners and their families (district 12’s Seam population), mostly from katniss or gale’s viewpoints. you won’t find pop music here. it’s mostly bluegrass and folk, in the spirit of the region. for the most part, i wanted to stick with an authentic feel to the selections, to provide you with a sense of the uniqueness, stuggle and rich history of this area of america and how that translates to partially explain the type of people Seam kids are.

• driftwood fire: i grew up in the appalachian hills
  the silver war tore this place apart, soldiers rode past those hills ‘round ours
  they ripped it up, tore it down, burned this place down to the ground
  and i ran through the fields made of sun;
  this land has got some shallow graves with deep divides and subtle shades.
  the things happened there that would make your blood run cold, 
  men in white with crosses of gold; burn that house like a bowl of fire
• steve earle: the mountain
• …and you will know us by the trail of dead: fields of coal
• kathy mattea: black lung
• alela diane: the ocean
• willie nelson: dark as a dungeon
• eastmountainsouth: hard times
• johnny cash: the l & n don’t stop here anymore
• o.a.r.: coalminer
• fleet foxes: tiger mountain peasant song
• hammock: the world we knew as children
• dessa: mineshaft 2
• stephen davis: blood by the ton
• robert plant & alison krauss: your long journey
• hazel dickens: mannington mine disaster
• sinead o’connor: lord franklin
• trampled by turtles: empire
• patty griffin: standing
• maps: to the sky (m83 remix)

LOS ANGELES, CA, May 23, 2011- Lionsgate® and the filmmakers of THE HUNGER GAMES are pleased to announce that iconic musician and actor Lenny Kravitz (PRECIOUS) has been cast in the role of Cinna in the much anticipated film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ worldwide smash hit novel.

Said director Gary Ross of the casting decision, “When I saw Lenny’s work in PRECIOUS I was just knocked out. It was quiet and strong and understated and open hearted; all qualities which define this character. I’m really looking forward to this ride.”

About The Role
Cinna is Katniss Everdeen’s assigned fashion stylist for the highly ceremonial lead up to The 74th Annual Hunger Games. Though he’s a mild mannered first time stylist, the designs he creates, such as the “Girl On Fire” costume for the tributes’ live televised debut, are show-stopping. With odds being set, wagers being placed, and wealthy benefactors able to occasionally intervene in the games, a high public profile is tantamount to a huge advantage for any contestant entering the arena. The stunning and unique designs Cinna creates for Katniss define her public identity, and in an all too real way, could also contribute to her very survival.

I think he’s going to be a fantastic Cinna.
