"From the Kennedys to Dylan, the Beatles, and Stones, Al Maysles and D A Pennebaker are the pre-eminent observers of politics and music in our time," commented Robert Redford, Sundance Channel founder. "Sundance is pleased to present these legendary filmmakers' view of the collision between pop culture and politics at this fascinating moment in U.S. history."

In all, the tour will include 37 shows in 33 cities in 12 states over 11 days. The "Vote for Change" headlining artists will come together and share the stage only once during the tour, for a special grand finale concert in Washington, D.C. on October 11th.
