Overview
A documentary film about session and touring musicians that are hired by well-established and famous bands and artists. These people may not be household names, but are still top-notch performers!
This was a really interesting look into the studio musicians that have made so much of the music that we hear on the music that we listen to. As with 20 Feet from Stardom I found their individual stories to be so very interesting. I also found it interesting to see how some of the major acts were more than willing to help the musicians and others took a very different approach.
