Synopsis: When Casey Cannon sees that tall green
Texas road sign, he takes it as a challenge and sets out on foot
to traverse the giant state from border to border. Casey walks
to block out the pain of discovering his mother's affair and
to find a way to tell his brother the truth. Dustin Cannon can
only drop his head and follow: his younger brother needs looking
out for.
Casey embodies the spitfire
image of the original Texan frontier settlers. Rash, raw, and
reckless, he makes the ladies love him despite knowing better
and never backs down from a fight, even one hes sure to
lose. Whereas Casey shoots from the hip, Dustin is nothing but
a straight-shooter.
The brothers take on every
bull ride, barbecue, and barfight along the way. They also make
a stop at Gruene hall, one of Texas's most storied dance halls,
where Casey plays on stage to reinforce a stellar soundtrack
infused with numerous Americana Music stalwarts such as Robert
Earl Keen, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and Charlie Robison (host,
Nashville Star). Shot along the highways and back roads of Texas,
Coyote Funeral makes Texas as much a character as the setting.
Whether Casey and Dustin make it to El Paso depends less on them
braving the elements than surviving each other.
