The Indigo Girls Amy Ray and Emily Sailers are lifelong friends who have made music together since the 1980s in Atlanta. The Grammy-award-winning duo’s work spans a variety of genres, from folk to blues, acoustic, country, and rock.
Their lyrics often focus on social causes and political issues with empathy as a central theme. Now, a new documentary, “It’s Only Life After All,” showcases their 40+ years together as musicians, friends, and activists. The film by Alexandria Bombach is screening on April 23 at the Carter Center as part of the Atlanta Film Festival.
In this interview, Indigo Girl Emily Sailers joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes to talk about the new film and career of the Indigo Girls.
“The timing was good for our songs to be out there and for people to be able to relate to them and help them in their lives, just like countless musicians have helped me and Amy in our own lives,” Sailers recalls.
The Indigo Girls’ documentary, “It’s Only Life After All,” screens at the Atlanta Film Festival on April 23 at the Carter Center as part of the Atlanta Film Festival. More information is available here.
