WHY OLD TIME?

We began with a simple question:  why Old Time?

What we have found is that Old Time music just isn't a sound.  It's a lifestyle.  It's living history.  And it's the musicians drive it ever forward while preserving an untarnished musical tradition. 

Horse Archer Productions is pleased to announce a full length documentary called Why Old Time? which will explore the beauty and art of Old Time music and attempt to explain why this particular type of roots music holds such power.  Filming will run through the summer months and we'll be talking to people who embrace the past and the future in the same breath, traveling to festivals to capture the experience of Old Time music in the 21st Century.  We have begun filming, but we are still looking for musicians, historians and devoted fans to appear in the film, so click here for more information or contact executive producer Chris Valluzzo if you would like to contribute.

WHY OLD TIME UPDATE:

November 2008:  The current expected release date is March 2009, which is a few months later than we originally expected.  Various factors played into the decision to move the final release date, but the most important one was quality.

As we worked on this story, it continued to expand and expand, opening up the diversity and depth of this musical tradition.  Some filming opportunities were not available to us until just this month and we expect to be doing some of our final filming in December.

Ultimately, Horse Archer Productions and our audience want the best possible film and to that end we have decided to take more time to accomplish that goal.
