            Another Song For Me

           

          Picture
          The morning fifteen-year-old Madison encounters a homeless musician, she feels she may have found the answer to her dream, performing at a competition in New Orleans with her new school’s glee club.

           Initially, the quirky, once famous jazz man becomes a reluctant mentor, but soon guides Madison, whose voice had been silenced for years, to musical heights she never believed possible. As the unlikely bond between the lonely teen and the charismatic tutor strengthens, they both find the courage to reveal long buried secrets that set them free.

          Once the outsider, Madison forges unexpected new friendships. She finds the strength to overcome mounting obstacles  and bring home the trophy that will for once, make her mother proud.

          When they reach New Orleans, the kids are instantly immersed in the thrill of the competition and enchanted with the magic of the city. Then, anxiously awaiting the announcement of the winners, they’re faced with a life changing catastrophe; the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina.
