Progress, discoveries and moments that moved us
November 2025 – Filming in South Louisiana completed
Phase: Production
We spent four magical days of filming in South Louisiana, including at the Dew Drop Music Hall, in Covington. The performance space started as a benevolent society in the late 1800s and later became a cornerstone of New Orleans jazz.
Our team captured live takes, spontaneous musical collaborations and some beautiful unscripted moments that will give the film its emotional core. This section of filming marks a major milestone for us.
What’s next:
We are fundraising for phase two of production - filming in Bristol and Nashville, Tennessee - to tell the Appalachian and country music history of “Liza Jane.”
September 2025 - We hit our crowdfunding goal
Phase: Pre-production / Development
