Find out how the songs he wrote with Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa back in 2002 finally saw the light of day on The CW series, the story behind the original “Archie The Musical”, as well the songs that saw air: “Monday, Senior Year”, “Friday Valentine”, “This Is Love” and “Finale (Our Song)” – as well as a song you might not know has already appeared on the series.

The theme music for Riverdale After Dark was written and performed by Jeff Solomon.
Matt Doers is one of my best friends and I am appreciative for learning the original concept and insights of the music and lyrics written long ago. I am very very happy for him. You guys, talked about Matt and American Psycho. There is no credit for writing. That’s not cool if the show doing that. Anyhow, thanks all of you for a great interview with Matt Doers. I learned much more listening to this podcast. Lol…
Glad you enjoyed!
Glad to see Matt’s talent is celebrated! I’ve been fortunate to see him play live but mostly have seen his exquisite composing and producing process. Most people don’t understand a song can take so long to blossom. The fact a successful TV show married pieces from his repertoire it’s just proof of his high skills.
I’ve read the episodes reviews on social media/fan sites and I’m thrilled by the fact most loved it and the remaining hated it, there were no dull comments about it, which means it’s was truly a bold story. There was a discussion about it and in showbiz we all know there’s nothing worst than dull.
Congrats Matt! can’t wait to see more of your work in the future, hopefully a #BROADWAYDALE extravaganza?! Fingers crossed xo
Thanks for listening!
