Ayesha MadonHeartbreak High just returned to Netflix (25 March) for a third and final season. While it’s devastating to say farewell to the students and staff of Hartley High, at least the tunes are great.
Like its predecessors, the soundtrack for the third season of Heartbreak High is packed with homegrown and international music, blending nostalgic Australian classics with modern-day chart-toppers—plus a musical appearance from lead cast member Ayesha Madon.
This season also welcomes Ghanaian-Australian rapper and singer Genesis Owusu, who makes a cameo on episode four and stars on the soundtrack.
He’s not the only one making waves on Heartbreak High’s third season. Across eight episodes, an abundance of music accompanies the characters as they present stories of high school romances and teen angst.
Episode one proves that it’s HOT TO GO with hits by Chappell Roan, INXS (Never Tear Us Apart), Smashing Pumpkins (1979), alt-J (In Cold Blood), and more, and the tunes continue throughout the season.
