It was exactly as complicated and challenging as it needed to be – just – pure. I know how it works mechanically, musically, how the sausage is made – but man oh man does it still feel absolutely amazing to play. That’s the thing though – this isn’t just about musicians – this is about everyone who is unsure about themselves and whether they can meet the expectations set before them. I’m a musician – this speaks to me on such a deep level that I still feel it in my stomach. Starring voice performances by Michael Johnston,Ĭaroline Kinley, Lena Headey, Jason Schwartzman, Mark Strong, and Carl Weathers. In an attempt to escape the musical legacy of his uncle, a teenage guitar prodigy embarks on a psychedelic journey to inspire his new stage persona, searching for who he isn’t in an adventure spanning stolen opera houses, melodic alien landscapes, and the impossible depths of the Cosmic Extraordinary. On the eve of his first performance, Francis Vendetti struggles with the legacy of a dead folk legend and the cosmic wanderings of his own imagination.
