Music features prominently in HBO's new series "Lovecraft Country." The show focuses on a young man named Atticus, or "Tic" (Jonathan Majors), as he searches for answers about his ancestry and missing father.

Even though the show is set in the 1950s, it includes a wide variety of artists in the soundtrack.

And while the diegetic music (the music heard by characters in the show) is period-appropriate, later episodes feature more recent artists during pivotal scenes.

There are also quite a few covers performed in the show, mostly by Ruby (Wunmi Mosaku), a blues singer who's the sister of Tic's friend Leticia "Leti" Lewis (Jurnee Smollett).

Here's an episode-by-episode guide to all of the music featured on "Lovecraft Country."

Note: This guide will be updated weekly to include new music from each episode as they are released.
