"As soon as I knew we were about to get a record deal, I never slept" - Caleb Followill. Talihina Sky: The Story of Kings of Leon is a unique insight into one of the biggest bands on the planet. Now a global phenomenon, the film charts their humble beginnings in the deep South, struggling with the grasp of God and the pleasures of the Devil through alcohol, recreational drugs and most importantly, the rock n' roll that would make them superstars, to signing a record deal and selling out stadiums worldwide. Featuring interviews with the full band Caleb, Nathan, Jared, and Matthew Followill, plus exclusive footage of other family members and influential figures in the band's lives and career, this is the first time their tremendous journey has been documented. Talihina Sky is the definitive story of the Kings of Leon, told in their own words.

Trailer
The four members of the world's biggest rock group have their lives laid bare in this documentary that gives the real story behind The Kings of Leon phenomenon.-
Here's a music documentary that gets properly down and dirty.
Andrew Pulver, The Guardian -
The dissonance between a Pentecostal upbringing and life in a multiplatinum rock act is entertainingly explored.
Charles Gant, Variety -
This works as both a decent documentary on a popular rock band and a look at rustic life in the Bible Belt.
Derek Adams, TimeOut London
