Andor: Season 2 (Original Score) is the score album composed by Brandon Roberts and Nicholas Britell for the second season of the American science fiction political spy thriller drama television series Andor.[1][2]
Towards the end of the season, the music becomes more orchestral to better transition into Michael Giacchino's score for Rogue One, to which Andor serves as a prequel.[3][4][5]
Like its predecessor, the soundtrack was released in multiple volumes. Volume 1 was released on April 25, 2025;[6] Volume 2 on May 2;[7] Volume 3 on May 9;[8] and Volume 4 on May 16.[9]
Reception
"NIAMOS! (Chandrilian Club Mix)", an EDM remix of "Niamos!", which played during the season's third episode, was widely acclaimed.[10][11][12] Vanity Fair described it as the 2025 "Song of Summer".[13] Andor's showrunner Tony Gilroy described "Niamos!" as a "galactic hit", with various versions played throughout both seasons.[14][15]
