LOGLINE

Music manager discovers a young talent who teaches him that family is more important than success and fame.

SYNOPSIS

Dissatisfied music exec Buzz takes a chance and strikes out on his own in search for fulfillment, success and the next big thing. He risks everything on Luka, a young YouTuber from Idaho. Buzz slips into a father figure role with Luka and convinces him, and his best friend/songwriter Katie, to go to LA in pursuit of fame.

But in a surprising twist, it’s Katie who becomes an overnight star when her song accidentally goes viral on YouTube. This forces Buzz into a moral dilemma. And when Buzz decides to promote Katie’s career instead, Luka is left alone and heartbroken.

Katie refuses to work with Buzz until he makes things right with Luka. Will Buzz be able to prove he’s learned that family is more important than success before he loses everything?

The New Trailer for "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms" Is a Stunning Holiday Dream

“As far as trailers go, this one is pretty heavy on the action and light on the dialogue which is just fine by us. Especially since it gives center stage to the trailer's haunting cover of No Doubt's anthem "Just a Girl."

Five Artists to Watch in September 2015

“With a debut EP out in October, Loren’s a 15-year-old pop sensation from Walloon Lake, Michigan waiting in the wings. According to the young lady herself, she wrote and arranged her first song seven years ago — as an 8-year-old — and her smartly rounded lyrics do the necessary fence-riding between accessible and engagingly unique storytelling. Her voice brushes down on its lowest register with a quiet husk, lending her songs the proper depth for maximum impact.”

“Loren, however, may just become the next benchmark for young talent. With a strong lyrical direction, willowing melodies, and dark verses, the 15-year-old, who has drawn comparisons to Ryn Weaver and Florence and the Machine, combines both classic and modern influences to create a new realm of moody, angsty music.”
