Famed songwriter Jack Tempchin, known for writing some of the most durable tunes in American music, is pleased to announce that “I Did It for Your Love,” one of his many co-writes with Eagles co-founder Glenn Frey, will be prominently featured in Joy, the new film from David O. Russell, starring Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, and Robert De Niro. This is the first soundtrack placement the duo has received since their song “Part of Me, Part of You” appeared in the iconic film Thelma & Louise.

Tempchin formed a strong writing relationship with Glenn Frey during the Eagles’ 14-year hiatus that began in 1980. Together the pair would write a string of hits with twelve songs charting in Top 40 radio, including "The One You Love", "I Found Somebody", and "True Love." Two of their biggest hits from that era, “You Belong to The City” and “Smuggler’s Blues,” were sampled by rap icons Jay-Z and Coolio respectively. Since the Eagles have reunited, the duo has co-written two additional multi-platinum songs released by Frey: "The Girl from Yesterday" from Hell Freezes Over and “It's Your World Now” from Long Road Out Of Eden.

Earlier this year, Tempchin released a new album titled Learning To Dance, which was highly regarded by many outlets including No Depression, Elmore Magazine, Beatweek, and many more.   The new releases span his breadth as a writer and performer, showcasing his flexible tenor voice. Both warm and intimate, his voice soars with unbridled joy, and is gracefully reflective. His powerful arranging skills and musicianship – strengthened by more than four decades of experience – can be heard throughout.

Best known for penning “Peaceful Easy Feeling” and “Already Gone” for the Eagles, and “Slow Dancing (Swayin’ To The Music)” for Johnny Rivers, Tempchin has written music for a variety of artists that includes George Jones, Randy Meisner, Glen Campbell, Emmylou Harris, Trisha Yearwood, and many others. He’s also co-written with a who’s who of American roots, rock and country composers that embraces Tom Waits, J.D. Souther, Bobby Whitlock, Jim Lauderdale, and Beth Nielsen Chapman. Jack Tempchin’s tenth solo record is available now on Blue Elan Records.
