Neil Finn will be joining Song Summit this year to present an extraordinary documentary called The Sun Came Out.
The documentary captures the world class group of musicians he gathered together for 3 weeks only in 2009 to record The Sun Came Out charity album for Oxfam. The album featured acts such as The Smiths’ Johnny Marr, Radiohead’s Ed O’Brien and Phil Selway, Glenn Richards, Tim and Liam Finn as well as Don McGlashan, Bic Runga, KT Tunstall and Wilco members Jeff Tweedy, John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche and Pat Sansone. The documentary captures the amazing creative process behind the making of the album and will surely be a highlight of the already impressive Song Summit 2012 program.
