Jazz pianist thought job offer from Spike Lee 'was spam'

Scottish jazz pianist Fergus McCreadie was surprised when Spike Lee reached out to work on the film score for "Highest 2 Lowest." Initially thinking the offer was a scam, McCreadie eventually flew to New York with his band to collaborate on the crime thriller soundtrack. The experience, including Lee attending his gig in Edinburgh, was surreal for McCreadie. The film incorporated McCreadie's track "Stony Gate" into the score, with Lee emphasizing the importance of matching music to the emotion of the scene, showcasing his care for the project.
