Review
"More than a tribute, the film is a recognition of the talent and sacrifice that many of these vocalists have invested in often challenging careers."--Hollywood Reporter"This film festival favorite is a genuine crowd pleaser, meant to right a few wrongs in the music industry, offer a window into the lives of some hard-charging entertainers, and above all make audiences leave the theater humming a song."--San Francisco Chronicle"An engaging look at the nexus of art and commerce, talent and hard work. It's a story of standing out and blending in, sometimes at the same time."--Washington Post
