Look Long: Together (premiering Sunday) the Indigo Girls, Emily Saliers and Amy Ray, give new meaning to their lyrics “Get out the map and lay your finger any way down.” Not only does their canon take a listener on a journey through one’s memories, but the film also features musicians contributing tracks from around the globe.
In 2020, just prior to shelter-in-place orders proliferating, the veteran musical duo were prepared to hit the road in support of their new album Look Long.
Instead, like so many artists, they pivoted to streaming concerts from home to uplift and engage fans while introducing them to their latest music.In Look Long: Together, an intimate gift to their fans, Saliers and Ray invite viewers into their homes in a sense.
In one scene, Saliers offers backstory to the guitars hanging in a room — she notes that one was her first guitar and another was a gift from Brandi Carlile.
