In addition, the film shows never-before-seen interviews with Dierks Bentley, Portugal. The Man, and Phantogram. You'll also see performance footage from Mumford & Sons, Bob Dylan, and Elvis Costello.

According to a press release:

Despite the long trek (and perhaps because of it), The Gorge has become "a pilgrimage for the artist and the audience," according to Jason Mraz, who first played the amphitheater’s parking lot during one of Dave Matthews' epic three-day shows. The setting of The Gorge is unparalleled, and the community among its fans is undeniable. “There’s no place like it in the world,” said Dave Matthews.

The Gorge is a 27,500 seat outdoor concert venue that has hosted Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Coldplay, The Grateful Dead, and thousands of others.

Due to the pandemic, The Gorge has been shut down since March 2020. The venue will re-open with the Watershed festival from July 30th through August 1st. Tim McGraw, Kelsey Ballerini, Dierks Bentley, Thomas Rhett, and others are scheduled to perform.
