"SCRUBS" SOUNDTRACK JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED: HOLLYWOOD RECORDS'
RELEASE FEATURES CROSS SECTION OF HOT NEW AND ESTABLISHED ARTISTS

Video for First Single, "Superman," by Lazlo Bane, Directed by the Series Star Zach Braff, See It HERE

Last Season NBC's "Scrubs" became one of TV's hottest comedies. Now Hollywood Records is set to release an album of music heard on the critically acclaimed series. Featuring a diverse lineup of new and established artists, including Colin Hay, Butthole Surfers, Shawn Mullins, the Eels, John Cale, and more. Hollywood's SCRUBS soundtrack arrives in stores September 24th, while the video for the single, "Superman" (the show's theme song), by Lazlo Bane, will be directed by first-time video director and "Scrubs" star Zach Braff. It will include behind-the-scenes footage from the show and performance footage of Lazlo Bane. The "Scrubs" season premiere airs Thursday, September 26 on NBC.

"Scrubs" follows the lives and loves of a group of earnest (yet quirky) young medical residents. "E.R." it's not, as at any moment the scene might shift from intensive care consult to a balcony musical number � la "West Side Story." To accent the show's madcap pace and comic tone, a wide variety of pop music has been used as backdrop.

"We consider music a key element of our show, so much that writers, cast members, and producers all scour local clubs and CD racks for bands we feel should be better known," said Bill Lawrence, "Scrubs" creator and executive producer.

Every song on the SCRUBS soundtrack has been featured on the series except for "Overkill," which will be performed by solo artist and former Men At Work frontman Colin Hay when he guest-stars on the "Scrubs" second season premiere, airing September 26 (8:30-9:00 p.m., ET/PT), playing a troubadour who appears unexpectedly in J.D.'s fantasy scenes throughout the episode.

"Bill Lawrence has created an environment that is really open to collaboration. He encourages everyone to bring him music that we think would be right for the show. Lazlo Bane and Colin Hay had songs that I was positive Bill would love," said "Scrubs" star Zach Braff.

Artists and tracks included on the Hollywood release are: Lazlo Bane, "Superman"; Shawn Mullins,"All In My Head"; The Eels, "Fresh Feeling"; Leroy, "Good Time"; Francis Dunnery, "Good Life"; The Shins, "New Slang"; Colin Hay with "Beautiful World" and "Overkill"; Guided By Voices, "Hold On Hope"; Nil Lara, "Fighting For My Love"; Butthole Surfers, "Dracula From Houston"; Everything, "Hooch"; John Cale, "Hallelujah"; Jeremy Kay, "Have It All"; and the end credits theme by Jan Stevens.

Winner of a prestigious Humanitas Prize and an Imagen Award, as well as a nominee for two Emmy Awards and a People's Choice Award in its debut season, "Scrubs" focuses on the out-of-the-ordinary experiences of medical resident John "J.D." Dorian as he embarks on his healing career at Sacred Heart, a busy teaching hospital crammed full of unpredictable staffers and patients -- where humor and tragedy can and do merge paths at any time. The series stars Zach Braff as John "J.D." Dorian, Sarah Chalke as Elliot Reid, Donald Faison as Chris Turk, Judy Reyes as Carla Espinosa, John C. McGinley as Dr. Perry Cox, Ken Jenkins as Dr. Bob Kelso and Neil Flynn as the Janitor.

Named a "Future Classic" by the TV Land cable network, "Scrubs" is the highest-rated new comedy series to return for the 2002-03 season. "Scrubs" is produced by Touchstone Television. Bill Lawrence ("Spin City") is the executive producer and creator.
