The musical score for 28 Years Later was composed by Young Fathers, a Scottish hip-hop group made up of three members – Alloysious Massaquoi, Kayus Bankole and 'G' Hastings.

The group are known for their studio albums Dead, White Men Are Black Men Too, Cocoa Sugar and Heavy Heavy, as well as their mixtapes Tape One and Tape Two.

Their music has been used on soundtracks for films such as Assassin's Creed and Danny Boyle's T2 Trainspotting, as well as episodes of series including Ray Donovan, Waterloo Road, The Blacklist, Feel Good, Industry, One of Us Is Lying and Swagger.

28 Years Later is the first feature film they have composed the full soundtrack for.
