Doug Rockwell & Tova Litvin Discuss Writing Songs For High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, Zombies 2 & Sneakerella
Recently I had the opportunity to speak with the Emmy nominated songwriting and music production team, Doug Rockwell and Tova Litvin. The duo has worked on the Disney+ series High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, where they worked on “Born to Be Brave” with Olivia Rodrigo, and the breakout song, “Flesh and Bone,” from Zombies 2, which has garnered over 170 million views on YouTube. Doug and Tova will also be working on Disney+’s upcoming first original live-action musical Sneakerella.
Doug and Tova also wrote and produced music for Kenny Ortega’s Julie and the Phantoms, a Netflix Top 10 series in 2020 that hit #4 on the Billboard charts, as well the #1 spot on the iTunes main and soundtrack charts in the USA. Their song, “The Other Side of Hollywood,” was nominated for Outstanding Original Song at the 48th Daytime Emmy Awards.
