“This is a movie you not only want to see, but also to put on the turntable.” – Peter Howell, Toronto Star
“Haley engagingly traces the arc of the father-daughter relationship while deftly avoiding sentimentality. And he elicits fine performances from a splendid cast.” – Calvin Wilson, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
“A keenly observed story of a Brooklyn father and daughter, charged with the kind of music as free-spirited as the duo is.” – Tomris Laffly, RogerEbert.com
In the hip Brooklyn neighbourhood of Red Hook, single dad and record store owner Frank (Nick Offerman) is preparing to send his hard-working daughter Sam (Kiersey Clemons) off to college, while being forced to close his vintage shop. Hoping to stay connected through their shared musical passions, Frank urges Sam to turn their weekly “jam sesh” into a father-daughter live act. After their first song becomes an Internet breakout, the two embark on a journey of love, growing up and musical discovery.
