Winner of the 2014 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature, this film takes a look at the world of backup vocalists and the legends they support. Backup singers live in a world that lies just beyond the spotlight. Their voices bring harmony to the biggest bands in popular music, but we've had no idea who these singers are or what lives they lead, until now.

IMDB Review: “This movie is brilliant, a must-see for all music lovers. It is this year's Searching for Sugarman. I was so entertained and moved, I saw it two days in a row, wanting to be with my wife while she watched it for the first time. The contributions from Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Bette Midler, and other stars help define the greatness and important of their back-up singers. The stories of Darlene Love and her compatriots moved us to tears of joy and sorrow.”
