The First Echotone Teaser - a documentary film by Nathan Christ about music culture in Austin

featuring 'The World is Awaiting' by Sunset and 'Doesn't Bother Me' by Sam & The Flusies

Internationally known as 'The Live Music Capital of the World,' Austin's music culture has led it to become one of the world's most sought-after destinations. As nearly two dozen high-rises pop up throughout the city amidst economic downfall, how does the working musician get along?

This lyrical documentary provides a telescopic view into the lives of Austin's vibrant young musicians as they grapple with questions of artistic integrity, commercialism, experimentation, and the future of their beloved city. Directed by Nathan Christ and photographed by Robert Garza, Echotone is a cultural portrait of the modern American city examined through the lyrics and lens of its creative class. The first piece of Echotone content we decided to release is this teaser trailer. It is crafted to be something you feel; a moment that is brief and doesnt linger, keeps you guessing, but doesnt give you the story right up front - the first emotional glimpse of the film.
