2016 (TV Series) 

Live From the Artists Den
Season 11, Episode 3 (#43)
Director:   Jojo Pennebaker
The Broad Street Ballroom, an architectural landmark in New York's Wall Street district, provided the perfect backdrop for a riveting performance by musical visionary Sturgill Simpson. A massive mural depicting the history of seafaring wraps around the entire room, echoing the central concept of Simpson's acclaimed new album A Sailor's Guide to Earth, which he played in full for an ecstatic crowd of 400 winners and invited guests. Backed by a powerful horn section, Sturgill reconfigured the arrangements for songs from his breakthrough album, Metamodern Sounds in Country Music, and even delivered an emotional version of the soul classic "You Don't Miss Your Water" to round out an unforgettable night. The July 26, 2016 performance was filmed for the October 17, 2016 episode.

2020 (Interview)

Director:  Mike Kirk
1 hr 28min
In this inspiring and uplifting documentary, stars and musicians from across the industry speak to the power and importance of music in society, the lack of support for music education in our schools, and how music affects us in every way. With special appearances and powerful performances by legends and icons of the music world, the film deeply explores how music touches the soul, scientists reveal how it organically transforms and inspires the mind, enlightens the human spirit, is a great healer, the soundtrack to our lives, and the international language of humanity. This emotional documentary examines how close we came to not having many of the incredible artists who we cherish today had it not been for arts programs. Music has the power to inspire and change the world, and that starts with supporting youth via arts education.
