Ep. 118: James Earl III (Art of a Hit)

Directed by Gaelan Draper, the film was co-written and produced by Saxton and Draper, and features an original soundtrack with music by indie rock band Jets to Brazil. In the film, Ryan, the lead singer of a late-90s rock band is haunted by irrelevance and struggling to regain visibility a decade after the band’s prime. Charlie Dupont, an eccentric super-producer, invites the band to his 1000-year-old French chateau to record a comeback album. We interview folks who were involved with the film and go behind the scenes, and do deep dives.CREDITSStephen Bluhm Sound Engineer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.stephenbluhm.fun⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Otter Castro Editor Rich WexlerProducer/Interviewer ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.vintageannalsarchive.com/vintage-annals-archive---the-deep-dive-podcast.html⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
