John Mellencamp and Stephen King's musical, Ghost Brothers Of Darkland County, will finally be released in 2013

For 13 years, the unlikely duo of John Mellencamp and Stephen King have been hard at work creating their long-in-the-making musical Ghost Brothers Of Darkland County. After many rewrites and brainstorming sessions, the "Southern gothic musical" really is near completion, with an official soundtrack hitting stores March 19, 2013. The T. Bone Burnett-produced release features original music and lyrics by Mellencamp with performances by Elvis Costello, Sheryl Crow, Kris Kristofferson, Neko Case, Rosanne Cash, and others.

Actual performances of the musical will be scheduled next year. The stage production's cast includes Kris Kristofferson, Meg Ryan, Matthew McConaughey, Samantha Mathis, and Elvis Costello.
