VIDEO: Billie Eilish Pays Tribute to Her Native City in Concert Film Trailer
Also starring Finneas and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, “A Love Letter to L.A.” Debuts Sept. 3 on Disney+
August 24, 2021“It’s a concert film but it’s also a story at the same time,” Grammy-winning artist Billie Eilish says in the trailer for “A Love Letter to L.A.”—which debuts Sept. 3 on Disney+. “I’ve never done anything like this.”
Meant as a companion piece to the singer and Stern Show guest’s sophomore album, “Happier Than Ever,” the film uses animation and concert footage from the Hollywood Bowl to pay tribute to the City of Angels, with L.A. native Eilish referencing a “beautiful version of old Hollywood.”
Directed by Robert Rodriguez (“Sin City”) and Academy Award winner Patrick Osborne (“Feast”), the movie also stars Eilish’s brother, collaborator, and producer Finneas, as well as conductor Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
Watch the teenage sensation and her brother perform their hit song “When the Party’s Over,” live on the Stern Show in 2019 (below).
