More than a dozen country music artists appear, including Rosanne Cash, Roy Clark, Merle Haggard, Lyle Lovett, Charley Pride, LeAnn Rimes, Kenny Rogers, Tanya Tucker, The Band Perry, and Keith Urban. The film weaves iconic imagery, historical footage, and over 25 country music hits into a dynamic portrait of this uniquely American sound.
