Country radio DJ Sid Wood died of a sudden heart attack in July of 1987 as he was about to go on air. Years later, his daughter Katelyn accidentally stumbles upon his unfamiliar voice in a box of old cassette tapes. The sound of Sid’s ghost spurs Katelyn on a cross-country journey: through the Midwest and American South, from small-town honky tonk bars to the Grand Ole Opry. Speaking with musicians, country music historians, and Sid's former colleagues, Katelyn explores the meaning of culture, family, and loss. In her audio-fueled quest, she asks big questions like: How can sound connect us across space and time? Where do we find home and belonging? And what’s so great about country music?
