"Moon Manor" soundtrack featuring "I'm Not Ready"

Maggie Dave is honored to be included in the original soundtrack for Moon Manor, making its world premiere at the 45th annual Atlanta Film Festival this April. Directed by Machete Bang Bang & Erin Granat, the film is a day-in-the-life story (in this case, a “last” day-in-the-life) of Jimmy, a man with advancing Alzheimer’s. Choosing to die as he has lived - with intention, humor and zest - a FUN-eral is planned. Along with it, the memories of his past flood through his home in Los Angeles, accompanied by his estranged brother, a journalist, his death doula, and a surreal being. “I’m Not Ready” will be featured along with the film’s original score, composed and produced by The Dream Team, known for their work with Coldplay.
