An authentic rock band story from Chicago to Nashville and, just maybe, back again
On the cusp of turning thirty, Chicago indie musician Maggie Corbin has hustled for a decade, set on making her rock and roll dreams come true. Her band, Spinning Birds, fronted by Maggie and her romantic partner Matt Turkish, releases a debut record to critical acclaim, hits the road, and begins working on a follow-up. From the outside, her path looks like success--but as streaming deconstructs the industry and Maggie's relationships shift and slip, the question remains: Can you live for art alone?
When a sudden move back to the South forces Maggie to reframe her dreams and reckon with familial rifts and her past--while still fighting to reimagine what her future could be--a natural disaster in Nashville and a surprise encounter with a character from her childhood shift her perspective on healing, community, and the ties that bind. Drifting in and out of songwriting sessions, cozy kitchens, and moments of bearing witness to the curious power of the natural world, The Come Apart celebrates the times when we must come fully undone in order to put ourselves back together.
