Dan DeLuca's Mix Picks: 'Big Little Lies' soundtrack, Academy of Country Music Awards & Orchestra Baobab

Big Little Lies Music From the HBO limited series. Every week, the Jean Marc-Vallée-directed show starring Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, and Shailene Woodley begins with a montage of jaw-dropping Big Sur scenery overlaid with British soul singer-songwriter Michael Kiwanuka's "Cold Little Heart." Also on the sound track of the show, whose murder mystery will presumably be solved during Sunday's finale: Charles Bradley, Leon Bridges, Irma Thomas, Alabama Shakes, and costar Zoe Kravitz.

Academy of Country Music Awards Not the most prestigious of country awards shows -- that would be the CMAs, not the ACMs -- this promotional party, hyped relentlessly during NCAA men's college basketball tournament games,  nonetheless features worthwhile big-name performances from Chris Stapleton, Maren Morris, and Miranda Lambert.  8 p.m. Sunday on CBS.
