Troubadours


Montana Premiere

From renowned filmmaker Morgan Neville, TROUBADOURS examines the California singer/songwriter movement of the early 1970s, as seen through the eyes of two of its brightest lights: Carole King and James Taylor. Intimately tracking King and Taylor’s artistic developments and enduring partnership, the film also interweaves the intriguing story of the “world famous” Troubadour club that cemented their musical legacy. Run by a mercurial impresario named Doug Weston, the Troubadour was, for a time, the premier launching pad for the likes of King, Taylor, and other soon-to-be-boldfaced names: Jackson Browne; Elton John; Kris Kristofferson; David Crosby; even Steve Martin and Cheech & Chong. Featuring never-before-seen archival material and unique musical performances, TROUBADOURS is as carefully handmade as the music it represents.
