"Le Noise Film" is a 38-minute black and white film of eight live-in-studio performances of the eight songs that appear on legendary rocker Neil Young's current album Le Noise. The performances, shot by filmmaker Adam CK Vollick, feature Young on acoustic and electric guitars at Daniel Lanois' home studio in Silverlake, CA, where Young and Lanois recorded Le Noise. The eight-song Le Noise, which is Young's most critically applauded album in years, is a collaboration between the influential rock icon and musician, songwriter, and multiple Grammy Award-winning producer Lanois, known for his work with U2, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Brian Eno, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, The Neville Brothers and many others.

Barn

MovieDocumentaryMusic

The documentary provides an unprecedented glimpse into Young and Crazy Horse’s creative process, as they took to tape in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains during the Covid-19 pandemic. Kicking off with a note of gratitude from Young (“I’m so glad we’re fuckin’ here!”), the trailer shows what things were like as the legendary band got back into their element, in the wild, making music in a restored, 19th-century log barn under a full, glowing moon. The film captures the group—a 50-year-old musical family that includes, Billy Talbot, Ralph Molina and Nils Lofgren —building the powerful new record, but also their easy humour and enduring brotherhood. - The Sound Cafe (www.thesoundcafe.com)
