Why? Well according to the Dreamboat Records Facebook,

We will have some exclusive surprises for fans of the film and Pattinson, so keep your eyes peeled over the the coming weeks for details of how to get hold of them.

I have been able to confirm the following about Rob’s involvement in the “How to Be” soundtrack,

I can confirm that 4 tracks will have Robert singing and playing; his character in the film is a struggling musician, so they are songs he sings in the film itself.  This news will be officially announced shortly….

As producer Justin Kelly indicated in his “How To Be” newletter update today, not only is the movie getting distribution, but the soundtrack will be coming our way as well.  There is some additional information about the soundtrack available courtesy of Dreamboat Records.

Dreamboat Records is pleased to announce we will releasing the CD soundtrack for the upcoming feature film How To Be, starring Robert Pattinson (Twilight, Harry Potter). The soundtrack will be available to pre-order from Dreamboat Records from Sunday 1st March, 2009. We will have some exclusive surprises for fans of the film and Pattinson, so keep your eyes peeled over the the coming weeks for details of how to get hold of them.
