Born to Be Blue

- Default Title
Description
Director Rob Budreaus Born to Be Blue loosely plays with the biography of noted jazz trumpeter Chet Baker, the creator of the cool west-coast sound, while focusing in on his post 1967 comeback. The film features a starring turn from Ethan Hawke, who uncannily is able to channel Bakers hipster aesthetic, capturing without mimicking the essence of Bakers oeuvre. The soundtrack features a Toronto-based group of players, led by noted Canadian jazz musician David Braid, along with Ethan Hawke on vocals on two tracks, creating a stunning set of songs that evoke the spirit of Bakers take on West coast cool. The soundtrack album features a number of Chet Baker standards, newly recorded by Braid and Hawke, along with period pieces by the likes of Charles Mingus and Odetta, and liner notes by noted music writer Rob Bowman.
