Hayes Carll is an up-and-coming singer-songwriter from Texas with a distinct country bent and mighty humble beginnings. (Early in his career he had to resort to selling vacuums door to door to support himself.) He has a voice as tough and relentless as a late-night Lone Star brawl and a lyric sensibility worthy of an M.F.A. creative-writing seminar. Carll just posted this tidy animated video on YouTube about his early days performing. His major-label début, “Trouble in Mind,” is out April 8.

"Moving McAllister" is an on-the-road comedy that proves that a mismatched pair can find love in all the wrong places. Story centers on Rick Robinson (Ben Gourley), a lowly intern at a prestigious Miami law firm who dreams of becoming a partner one day. Eager to impress, he agrees to help the firm's top lawyer, Maxwell McAllister (Rutger Hauer), with a favor he really cannot afford. Just five days before the bar exam, Rick finds himself in charge of moving McAllister's dearest possession across the country: his seductive, yet untouchable niece Michelle (Mila Kunis). In a less than stellar moving van, the mismatched pair begins their cross-country journey. Along the way they encounter numerous obstacles and unforgettable characters, like free-spirited hitchhiker Orlick Prescott Hope (Jon Heder), who all contribute to slowing down the journey much to Rick's dismay. However, through the experience, Rick begins to see that there's more to life than becoming a successful lawyer.
