Mint Season 1 (2026) Soundtrack Guide
A darkly comic and unconventional drama about what it means to be part of a crime family. It chooses not to focus on the usual suspects, the godfather or the heavy, preferring instead to follow the kids, the mum and the grandma in the family. It’s a story about the love, darkness, humour, heartbreak and plain weirdness of living alongside that world, and what happens when you’re forced to take control of it.
Mint soundtrack includes a selection of tracks from Charli XCX, Saya Gray and others, along with an original score by Patrick Jonsson. This guide provides the complete list of soundtrack songs and scene descriptions, along with details on the composers and music supervisors involved in the 2026 BBC production. For more information on soundtrack songs and track listings, check the series section.
Created and directed by Charlotte Regan, the darkly comic and unconventional crime-family drama follows Shannon, the daughter of a dominant criminal organization, who falls for the son of a rival gang. Their modern, star-crossed romance unfolds against the gritty streets of Scotland, introducing elements of magical realism into their chaotic lives. To match the energetic rhythm of their illicit meetings and gang rivalries, the soundtrack utilizes high-tempo upbeat tunes that fuel the tension. These fast sequences are balanced by retro background tunes, including classic soul tracks from Leon Haywood, highlighting the unusual family dynamics of their criminal underground.
