KT Tunstall Records 3 New Songs for “Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast”

Neverbeast gruff reveal

Here is KT Tunstall’s song, “Float” which is for the opening scenes of the upcoming movie, “Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast”.

It is a really nice opening piece showing what Fawn’s morning is like as she cares for all the animals around Pixie Hollow.

KT TUNSTALL LIGHTS UP PIXIE HOLLOW MARCH 3rd 2015 ON BLU-RAY

Singer/songwriter/musician KT Tunstall heads to Pixie Hollow to help bring animal fairy Fawn’s story to life in “Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast.” Tunstall performs three new songs in the film, including “Float,” “Strange Sight” and “1000 Years.”

“KT is a celebrated songwriter and musician,” says director Steve Loter. “She reminds me of Fawn in a way with her big heart and this amazing voice that has a little bit of edge and a tremendous amount of appeal.”

The all-new Tinker Bell film is about the relationship that develops between Fawn, a compassionate animal fairy who thinks with her heart, and Gruff, a massive beast with glowing green eyes who seems to be on a mission. “It’s a real action-adventure movie,” says Tunstall. “The characters are so cool. I was over the moon to take part. Disney Animation has such an incredible heritage of work, spanning decades, and it’s really special to be part of that.”

Tunstall had fun channeling the film’s heroine. “‘Float’ is Fawn’s opening theme,” she says. “It’s fantastic how she spends her days looking after all the animals around Pixie Hollow. The song says, ‘I’ll just float.’ She doesn’t have to have a reason, she just really loves having a pair of wings, so she’s going out for a fly, getting into trouble and mischief.”

The artist also helped introduce the NeverBeast. “‘Strange Sight’ is heard when Fawn discovers this beast living in the woods near Pixie Hollow,” says Tunstall. “He’s a huge, scary-looking guy, but she isn’t afraid. She wants to help him and make friends with him, but can’t work out what he is or what he’s doing with the rocks he’s collecting.”

The third song in Tunstall’s lineup, which she sings with singer/songwriter Bleu, is an emotional song that can be heard during the film’s end credits.

ABOUT KT TUNSTALL:
Tunstall has recorded five studio albums and received multiple Brit Award nominations including a win for female solo artist and a 2007 Grammy® nom for the song “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree.” Her hit “Suddenly I See” was featured in the motion picture “The Devil Wears Prada,” which led her to her interest in composing for film including “The Kid,” “Winter’s Tale” and a collaboration with A.R.

Disney’s Secret of the Wings Blu-ray Review

Tinkerbell and the Secret of the Wings Blu-rayTinker Bell and her friends return to the movies with the first full length Tinker Bell movie in two years, Secret of the Wings. Eva and I got to go see this in the movie theater in a sneak peek a week before it was released on Blu-ray/DVD. The movie was wonderful. I have to admit that I’m a big time Tinker Bell fan starting with her first feature movie. That one was smart and funny and a great addition to the Disney family of movies. Each movie after that one has gotten better and better with new characters and adventures. This time around it is a whole new cast of supporting characters from the mysterious Winter Woods.

The Winter Woods is where the Winter Fairies live and the other fairies of Pixie Hollow are not allowed to go to the Winter Woods. Of course, our curious and willful Tinker Bell defies the rule and enters the Winter Woods. There she discovers an incredible secret, the Secret of the Wings.

The DVD/Blu-Ray Combo pack that I reviewed came with a 3D Blu-ray copy, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Download copy. There were some fun bonuses like the half hour special called the Pixie Hollow Games and a very little short called Fright Light starring Cheese and Blaze. There were also two music videos and the movie itself. Eva watched the movie again on the iPad and as a family we watched The Pixie Hollow games and loved it.

We continue to be impressed with the Disney Fairies franchise and even saw a preview for the next Tinker Bell movie coming in 2014. That one also looks to be a fun adventure, Eva was so tickled to see the teaser.

I’ve gotten a ton of cool Winter related stuff to pass on to you about this movie including some videos and downloadable activity sheets. Check them out below. Continue reading Disney’s Secret of the Wings Blu-ray Review
