Mary Anthony (Josephine) learned to play the piano for this role.
The 3 musicians in the film met with director Ty Fanning and rehearsed as an actual band. The music performed in the film is all performed live in real time with no post-production dubbing.
The second day of filming was interrupted by a tornado nearby but the production still managed to wrap on time.
Inspired by the song "Ghost Town" by the Swedish folk duo First Aid Kit.
