The title track of The Bad News album was written decades ago when a film music producer asked if I’d give them Something (For Janette) for a film. I pretentiously said no, ’cause that was my wedding proposal song and belonged to my wife. But I asked if I could record and send ’em something similar. They said sure, and I wrote, recorded, and sent them The Bad News. It ended up in a bunch of major films and TV shows.

Have you heard the bad news? Cory Cullinan’s releasing a new album! Recording is happening in Reach Studios‘ brand new Retro Recording Room for release in 2027.


The Bad News is an album that’s equal parts fun and fun. It features twelve new Cory Cullinan tracks backed by an amazing big band; huge doses of musicianship, heart and humor; a duet with his daughter, recording artist Riley Max; and videos by his other daughter, Sidney Cullinan. The title track was originally featured in the Brad Pitt & Robert Redford film Spy Game and can be heard in a more intimate version on Cory’s Soundtracks album:
We’ll see ya in ’27.
