AMERICAN HARMONY
Synopsis
American Harmony journeys deep into the ultra-obsessive, zany, and heartfelt world of competitive barbershop singing, where passion is equaled only by raw talent, and the reward is not fame or fortune, but simply victory.

“Filmmaker Aengus James sympathetically captures the trills of victory and the agony of defeat at the International Championships of Barbershop Singing in "American Harmony," an efficiently constructed and emotionally involving documentary with a sharp eye for revealing detail and a pleasing amount of low-key charm.”
___JOE LEYDON OF VARIETY
“. . . engaging, tearful and hysterical documentary . . . It’s a battle of the bands Barbershop-style! Like any great competition-based documentary, the story is about the characters – there are ones you root for and then there are the villains, but there’s no shortage of likeable unique characters and this is where “American Harmony” excels. This is truly the must-see music doc of the year.”
___CHRIS GORE OF FILMTHREAT
“The audience literally CHEERS during the film... rooting for these guys like you would at the Super Bowl. A crowd-pleasing TRIUMPH!”
___PATRICK SCHWEISS, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, SEDONA FILM FESTIVAL
