A
foot-stomping score drives this funny and riveting tale of a hapless musician’s
struggle to fulfill his dreams. With a cast of music legends including Merle
Haggard, Dr. Ralph Stanley, Charlie McCoy, and Jesse McReynolds joined by
award-winning musicians Jim Lauderdale, Elizabeth Cook, Justin Townes Earle,
and Wayne Henderson, this film invents a landscape of Surreal Americana. Shot
on location in
the Blue Ridge Mountains and Nashville, ‘My Fool Heart’ is a
poetic and stirring exploration of the creative aspirations that incessantly
bite at the ankles of every artist. Are you following your dreams?
Musician KENDL WINTER will be performing live songs
from the soundtrack.
A traveler, a dreamer, and
a banjo pickin’ sweetheart from Arkansas, Kendl Winter sprouts alfalfa beans in
mason jars in the back of her tour van and spreads her songs across the country
Johnny Appleseed style. Her voice is beautifully unique and bold, and her songs
are thoughtfully poetic and rooted deep
within her experience. Previously of the Blackberry Bushes String band, she has
branched off and out and her solo work is even more captivating and
mesmerizing. Stemming from an old-time
and bluegrass bend, Kendl has joined My Fool Heart's Summer 2013 Tour as a
featured solo performer.
