Most nights, youll find Alison Hunter at The Venue, the kind of sweaty Nashville spot thats on the circuit for bands like Bon Iver and Death Cab. Sounds glamorousbut not for Al, who stamps hands at the door with Julien, the quiet coworker who treats her like a little sister. When she can sneak off, she bums drinks from the tattooed bartender and watches the bands, wondering if shell ever finish a song of her own after her disastrous attempt to play in public.

When a once-in-a-century storm hits and her lead singer ex-boyfriend shows up at the door, Al finds herself stuck in a perpetual cycle of late nights, new flings, and old flames. Obsessed with the disappearance of a troubled indie star, she slowly starts to lose it herselfuntil one reckless night threatens to derail everything. As propulsive and sexy as the rasp of a static-driven amp,Lo Fiis an openhearted tribute to the messy truth of the creative life, the clash of lust and love, and the yearning to be heard.
