In the past, I've worked on various film projects with Chloe, and when she came to me with this project, I knew that I wanted to be involved in some capacity. It was natural fit and one that both challenged and excited me. I loved watching Chloe as a director -- from the choices she made to the levity that she provided on set -- and I think she's incredibly talented. We've got something really great on our hands here and I'm excited for you all to finally watch it. 
Veda Menghani | Director of Photography
I am excited to work on this project since I've been playing the guitar from a young age and anything about music just draws me in. My interest was further piqued when I got to know the story about her dad passing an the aftermath of it. Often, when we view an artist, we only see the glamour and the success, overlooking the struggles behind the scenes. |

I'm very happy to be part of this project! As a fellow musician, Ruby's story resonated with me a great deal. Trying to make a career in music business is not easy. Compounded with any personal struggles, it could feel like a journey with no end in sight. Ruby's awareness, introspection, and resiliency enables her to march on and come out stronger than before. And that is admirable and inspiring. |
