Life's full of unexpected connections. I met Angus Legg at a gig over a year ago, and his voice and energy resonated deeply. Now, I’m honoured to share this intimate doco about his life and creative path. In our conversations, filmed in and around Fitzroy in Melbourne, Angus opens up about the people who matter most - his parents, whose love and legacy shape his music, and his friends, who inspire him to write songs like 'Napier Street'. Angus's love for music, family, and creative expression shines bright, and I'm stoked to share his story.
