Far beyond reason and rhyme

Jim Lauderdale is more than just a Grammy-winning Americana icon. He's also the nicest guy in showbiz and a walking advertisement for Manuel tailoring.

I was in Nashville last month working on Untitled Documentary Project and was able to direct this short documentary on the making of Jim's latest album, Reason and Rhyme. It's his third full-album collaboration with legendary Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter and a return to bluegrass.



If this whets your appetite, get a hold of the record through iTunes, Amazon or wherever you get your albums from.
