- June 1961, NYC: legendary jazz pianist Bill Evans (Anders Danielsen Lie) has found his musical voice and created the perfect trio, including bass player Scott LaFaro, said to be his soulmate through music. A residency at New York’s Village Vanguard culminates in the live taping of two of the greatest jazz records of all time in one night. Ten days later, LaFaro dies in a car crash. Numb with grief, Evans stops playing. Everybody Digs Bill Evans is the story of what happened next for one of the most influential and gifted figures in 20th century music.
