Can independent art and a DIY ethos thrive in a world that seems more corporatized by the day?
PLAY BY EAR uses Boise’s Treefort Music Fest as a window into the lives of touring musicians at various stages of their careers to see the grit and grind that go into putting on a show, surviving on the road, and building a local arts community. Featuring interviews with Treefort founders and artists including Built to Spill, Blood Lemon, Prism B!tch, Pictoria Vark, John Roseboro, Magic Sword, and others.
