The Last Rodeo

The film stars Neal McDonough (BAND OF BROTHERS, SUITS, YELLOWSTONE), Mykleti Williams (FORREST GUMP, FENCES, HEAT) and Christopher McDonald (HACKS, QUIZ SHOW, THELMA & LOUISE)

THE LAST RODEO is a family film about Joe Cartwright, a former professional bull rider who is pushing 50. When he is faced with a dire emergency for his grandson Cody, he realizes he has to ride one more time. His headstrong daughter Sally has always had a fraught relationship with Joe. The idea of her dad risking his life to save her son is a choice no woman would envy. And Joe’s willingness to potentially make the ultimate sacrifice for his family, forces him to confront his own demons, beliefs and faith.

The film is directed by Jon Avnet, director of such projects as FRIED GREEN TOMATOES, JUSTIFIED, THE STARTER WIFE and BOOMTOWN, and producer of such projects as BLACK SWAN, SNEAKY PETE, RISKY BUSINESS and many more.

66 Kix Tour: Behind the Scenes of the Documentary  

On Saturday, February 24, 2023, several of the performers on the 66 Kix Tour were taken to Tulsa, Oklahoma for a photo shoot and some filming for the tour's documentary.

Tour producer Sam Sibala brought performers Elzie Hickerson, Joesf Glaude, Andrea Easton Esparza, Matt Damon, Becky Sparkman, Nova Sharp and yours truly to The Mother Road Market on 11th Street (Route 66) in Tulsa for some photos at the big Route 66 mural on the building. 

We packed up and moved to the Pearl District on Route 66 for some shots at a great little vinyl record shop called Josey's. Several shots of the artist were taken as we looked over some classic albums that helped us for our individual music styles.

Our little caravan then stopped at Tally's on Route 66 for some lunch and few tunes provided by Matt Damon.

We ended the day at Davis Ward's Studio 66 where we participated in interviews and played our original songs on film for the tour's documentary.

I am only allowed to show you a few photos--the rest will have to wait for later!
