Brian Wright and The Waco Tragedies in Tennessee
Brian Wright and The Tragedies will be performing an original tune for a short scene in the movie Tennessee. The band flew out to Nashville for a few days to shoot at the Second Fiddle on Broadway in downtown Nashville. The Tragedies will be performing the song before a Mariah Carey performance that will follow in the movie.
Brian was so kind to give some more infos for the Heroes of Mariah promo page. "The song we performed in the movie is called Glory Hallelujah. It can be found on our new album Bluebird due out in early October. It's sort of a rock and roll, gospel, high energy, rave up that has the crowd in the movie dancing and clapping along in smoky Nashville bar.
After our performance, Mariah's character takes the stage to sing a really beautiful ballad, that if I'm not mistaken, was written by Willie Nelson for the movie. She is accompanied by Mickey Raphael (Willie Nelson's long time harmonica player) and a guitarist, though I think the guitarist may have just been an actor. Mariah was very cool to us, very professional, and it was a pleasure to work with her, though it was only for one day.
The entire team from the writer, to the production team, to the cast, etc. were all very cool and I'm glad to be a part of it. The scene that we are in with Mariah is all I've seen of it, but it looks great and her performance is fantastic." (Heroes of Mariah)
