The colorful life of Texas honky-tonk hero Dale Watson and his wife, Celine Lee - a Miami-born ex-playboy bunny turned singer. Stars of their very own southern fairytale, Dale and Celine formed a magnetic bond that went beyond their love for the rockabilly scene and inserted itself into the mic between them, launching a life of lyrical adventure. Across a landscape where Americana roots defy commercial trends and keep the soul of country music alive, we travel with the electric duo from Texas dancehalls to Memphis landmarks, meeting the characters and communities that shape their unapologetically free life.
