Angels Sing is based off a novel of the same name released in 1999 by Turk Pipkin. The film stars Harry Connick, Jr. who meets Nick (Willie Nelson) who sells him a house at half price, but only if he will keep up the traditions of the house and neighborhood, including maintaining the house as the centerpiece of the neighborhood’s Christmas celebration.

Kris Kristofferson plays Harry Connick Jr.’s father, Connie Britton from ABC’s Nashville plays Connick’s wife, and Lyle Lovett plays one of the neighbors. The film also includes cameos from The Trishas, Texas swing legend Ray Benson, Dale Watson, Sarah Hickman, Marcia Ball, Guy Forsyth, Joel Guzman, Kat Edmonson, Miss Lavelle , Eloise DeJoria, and others. The film is based in Austin, TX. Music wasn’t a part of the original script, but director Tim McCanlies saw a unique opportunity with so much music talent on the set to make it a seminal part of the movie.
