Michael Cera plays a man who returns home to see his two sisters after three years apart. This squirmy film about adults who act like overgrown children might just break your heart.

Country Music Hall of Famer, five-time Grammy-winner, and AMA Lifetime Achievement honoree Marty Stuart picks up where he left off on Altitude, his first new album in five years, exploring a cosmic country landscape populated by dreamers and drifters, misfits and angels, honky-tonk heroes and lonesome lovers. There’s a desert flare to the music here, a sweeping, spacious feel that conjures up wide-open horizons and endless stretches of two-lane highway, and the production is raw and cinematic to match, tipping its cap both to Bakersfield and Laurel Canyon as it balances jangle and twang in equal measure. While it would be easy for an artist as accomplished as Stuart to rest on his laurels, Altitude instead showcases the work of a searcher with an insatiable appetite for growth and reflection, one whose ambition, much like his keen wit and rich imagination, only seems to grow with each and every release. Born and raised in Philadelphia, MS, Stuart got his start in bluegrass legend Lester Flatts’ band at the tender age of thirteen, and by twenty-one, he was working in the studio and on the road with Johnny Cash. Though Stuart built his early reputation backing up royalty, it wasn’t long before Nashville recognized him as a star in his own right, and over the course of forty-plus years as a solo artist, he would go on to release more than twenty major label albums, scoring platinum sales, hit singles, and just about every honor the industry could bestow along the way.

Featuring Amadou Fall Senegalese master musician Amadou Fall presents an intimate solo performance of songs on the kora, a plucked, double-bridged, 21-string gourd harp used extensively across West Africa. Amadou has developed his own repertoire on the kora, consisting of the traditional music of Senegal and his own compositions. About Amadou Fall Originally from Senegal, West Africa, Amadou Fall comes from a family of musicians; his father, Mamadou Fall, was a guitarist who played with Baba Maal and several other well-known Senegalese musicians. His family was introduced to the Kora by Amadou when he was 10. The Kora is a 21-stringed fishing line instrument made of wood, calabash (gourd), and cow skin and is commonly referred to as an African Harp. While growing up, Amadou’s family lived close to the city of Griots (West African storytellers and keepers of tradition). He often visited the house in which the Griots lived and was taught how to play a few songs on the Kora there. After falling in love with the instrument, Amadou rebuilt a Kora for himself in his city. From what he had learned, Ame Kora aka Ame Fall embarked on a new journey to master the art of Kora playing. Since he began playing Kora 20 years ago, Amadou has performed with many artists including Baba Maal, Fatou Lowbe, Ibrahim Ba, Djembe Rhythm, and Irene Tassambendo, among others. A number of his concerts have taken place on the African continent (Senegal, Mauritania, Congo, Burkina Faso, Mali, Togo, Benin, and Ivory Coast). Additionally, Amadou has performed in many other parts of the world, including France, Belgium, Italy, Hungary, England, Canada, Mexico, the Czech Republic, and the United States. Additionally, Amadou has been part of several recordings for international musicians. Currently living in Indio [Coachella Valley] California, Amadou Fall hopes to bring people from all walks of life together with African music through the sounds of his Kora.
