B'Way Royalty Kissed By Santa Barbara's Golden Light  Image

Three-part-harmony contemporary-folk sensation The Sweet Remains today launched a five minute "festival experience" video on their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/TheSweetRemains/. The video showcases the world premiere of The Sweet Remains' band member and writer-director Greg Naughton's feature debut THE INDEPENDENTS at this month's Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Flanked by co-stars and band-mates Brian Chartrand and Rich Price, Naughton celebrates before the first screening of THE INDEPENDENTS with his wife, Tony winner Kelli O'Hara Naughton, father and two-time Tony winner James Naughton and Chris Sullivan of the NBC hit "This Is Us." All three performers have cameos in the film as do Richard Kind and George Wendt.

Photographed in the uniquely golden light of California's central coast, the video's narrative spine follows a crowd of about thirty friends and family, as well as SBIFF Executive Director Roger Durling, from a reception in the courtyard of The Wine Cask to introduce the film's very first screening at the Fiesta 5 on State St. The next morning, The Sweet Remains are warmly welcomed on Lin Aubuchon's legendary "Morning Mojo" broadcast at KTYD 99.9 FM and on the foggy terrace at KEYT / FOX 11. The band performs "Dance With Me," a fan favorite from the film's soundtrack, on both live broadcasts.

Produced by Sunny & Mild Media for client RGB Film, this filmmaker-focused video, which can be downloaded, embedded, and shared via https://vimeo.com/256706356 , marks a transformative weekend for The Sweet Remains. Reminiscent of sounds from the likes of Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Sweet Remains has racked up over 30 Million listens on Spotify.
