(Hollywood, CA) Outlaws aren’t normally associated with music, but when director Will Ryder was desperately seeking the perfect song for the production of his feature movie Love, Sex & Music, he ventured into a dusty bar in Tujunga, California and ran smack dab into a group of outlaws. Honest Family Outlaws that is, and they were performing country trap songs live on stage when Ryder knew he had to get them involved in the soundtrack of his Adam & Eve feature movie.
“They were on stage, absolutely killing it when they launched into a great country song they wrote called ‘On the Radio’ and it clicked immediately that it was the perfect song for my movie which is all about the country music business in Nashville,” Ryder remarked.
What resulted was a two in the morning meeting as the band slammed shots of whisky letting Ryder know their song was not available.
“We had just cut a deal for that song so we couldn’t license it, but Will was relentless and convinced us to go into the recording studio and create some other songs for his movie,” stated Adam E. the band’s guitar player.
These days, original music created specifically for an adult movie is rarely considered due to the extreme cost and the easy availability of compositions on music licensing services but spending the extra cash for original music was worth it to Ryder. His next step was to convince Adam & Eve.
“Getting Adam & Eve Pictures to buy into my vision posed certain questions but we were able to agree that this script was unique, the characters authentic and we had to go the extra mile to make this movie our most dramatic ever,” Ryder confessed. “Very few companies would agree to this.”
The new compositions Right into Your Arms and Born Country were completed in three recording sessions and finally the actual movie production could be scheduled.
“We knew we had the missing element to enhance the script and bring the characters and story to life,” co-producer Scott David offered.
Adam & Eve Pictures’ head of production Rachel V agreed, “We trust Will’s vision and will greenlight all of his musical decisions in the future because Love, Sex & Music is very entertaining and the music is key.”
The story is based on fact pulled from Ryder’s own experience in the music business two decades earlier.
When aspiring black singer/songwriter Dixie (September Reign) moves to Nashville, she discovers that Music Row is not the welcoming home she expected, but rather a den of lies, deceit, court cases and corporate greed. Finding herself smack dab in the middle of a Nashville scandal after writing the hottest song of the year, Dixie is at odds with famous singing superstar Missy Free (Vanna Bardot) who wants to record her song. The music label executives want to steal it as Dixie is driven to the breaking point.
