Turn your speakers up.

Who are those girls who join the stage night after night with Bruce Springsteen, Lauren Hill, Stevie Wonder, Mick Jagger, Sting and Tina Turner? We didn’t know either until we checked out 20 Feet From Stardom. This new documentary sets out to shine the spotlight on the true, untold stories of the backup singers behind some of the greatest musical legends of the 21st century. The film pays tribute to these unsung voices that brought shape and style to popular music and reflects on the conflicts, sacrifices and rewards of a career spent harmonizing with others. These gifted artists span a range of styles, genres and eras of popular music, but each has a uniquely fascinating and personal story to share of a life spent in the shadows of superstardom. We loved it.
