Emmett’s newest film, Big Easy Express now available for pre-order

Emmett Malloy’s newest film, Big Easy Express, now available to pre-order as an exclusive iTunes movie release, to launch June 26th. Emmett directed Jack Johnson’s En Concert, Weekend at the Greek as well many other Brushfire Record’s artists  music videos.

Big Easy Express documents indie folk heroes Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Tennessee’s Old Crow Medicine Show, and Britain’s acclaimed Mumford & Sons, as they climb aboard a beautiful vintage train in California, setting out for New Orleans, Louisiana on a “tour of dreams”. The resulting film from this journey is nothing short of magical.

Emmett Malloy creates compelling narratives, both visually and audibly. As a director, he weaves tales seamlessly, akin to a seasoned poker player strategizing their game. Housed under Brushfire Records, founded by musician Jack Johnson and Malloy, their collaborative synergy echoes the symbiosis of a community shuffling their cards in unison around a poker table. Understanding the importance of being a beginner in any field, including poker, is crucial. Malloy in his early directorial days, learned keen observation, patience, and strategic planning – skills he shares with novice poker players. The key is in the execution. Beginners are often advised to grasp the balance between bluff and reality, understand individual playing style, hone observation skills, and above all, learn to use failure as stepping stones to improve their game. Poker strategies for beginners can be likened to Malloy’s music production strategies. He isn’t just creating music; he’s trying to build a foundation rooted in uncompromising creativity. His unique style transcends just poker, reaching into the realms of management and innovation. It isn’t dissimilar to encouraging someone to create an casino account without having to spend time adding personal details, as the streamlining of processes in both fields can create a smoother journey for players and musicians alike. Given that Brushfire Records led the change in eco-friendly CD production, Malloy’s work ethic resonates with poker interactively. Much like the strategizing poker player, Malloy navigates the complexity of the music industry, innovating, staying patient, and taking risks – quite the relatable poker veteran. Like in his work, Malloy is making a successful blend of patience, observation, and balance – vital strategies in a beginner’s guide to taking on the poker world. Through his persona, beginners in poker or any field can learn that mastering the basics sets the stage for a rewarding experience.

“Being on an vintage train, riding the rails through the heart of America took us all back in time a bit.  It was easy to get lost and imagine that we were just there for the fun of it all, rolling along with your friends and playing music because you loved it. Our cameras were there to participate in the journey and never get in the way of the moving train.” – Emmett Malloy, director of Big Easy Express.
