Immediate Family (2022) — the documentary following the work and lives of legendary 1970s session musicians who were featured on some of the most iconic recordings of the era — is now screening in movie theaters and streaming digitally. The documentary features musicians who have worked closely with Stevie Nicks, such as Danny Kortchmar, Russ Kunkel, and Waddy Wachtel. It also includes interviews from Don Henley, Carole King, James Taylor, and many more.

“Waddy and I sometimes, I think we’re the same person, except from California and New York, because we are like two sides of a coin and that’s why we have been working together for so long I think. Because I would never want anybody else to be my musical director, or my lead guitarist, because Waddy makes me feel safe and always has in any situation, no matter how frightening the situation, as long as he’s standing next to me, I know I’m safe.” — Stevie Nicks

“This film is a window into the lives of my musical brothers, whose gold standard is to make sure that every song they play on comes out even better than the songwriter imagined. Now they’re doing that for their own songs, and this film tells their story beautifully.” — Carole King

“A wonderful and fascinating encomium to the unsung heroes of the music of the 70s and so much more. I was thrilled to watch my favourite musicians (and dearest friends) celebrated for their musical brilliance, their prodigious influence and creativity – and for how much fun we all had (and, by the way, continue to have!)”. — Peter Asher

“One of the things about the comradery was the knowledge of what it’s like to make music together and to collaborate. on something like that. Like put down a tune and everybody work together as a sort of team or a community on this tune. It’s a bond, it’s such a special thing to be able to do. “The creative input of these session guys cannot be overstated. It can’t be overstated. I mean it just can’t be overstated.” — James Taylor
