‘Breaking Upwards’ Film Premieres at SXSW, Soundtrack Features Indie Favorites
Austin Sound Check is first and foremost a music blog, but sometimes there are blogworthy happenings where music intersects with other creative outlets, such as film. SXSW is a prime example of this intersection, where the film Breaking Upwards will premiere.
Starring and produced by real life couple Zoe Lister-Jones and Daryl Wein, Breaking Upwards chronicles the struggles of a 20-something couple exploring the bounds of their relationship in NYC. The fictional narrative is loosely based on Lister-Jones and Wein’s actual relationship.
The Breaking Upwards soundtrack was composed by Kyle Forester (Crystal Stilts, Ladybug Transistor) and features performances by Ryan Miller (Guster) and Gary Olsen (Ladybug Transistor). You can hear the markedly indie, but profoundly moving songs over the Breaking Upwards trailer below.
