VIDEO: Chloe Bailey Stars In PRAISE THIS Musical Event Trailer

Sometimes the music can lift you higher than you've ever been.

Five-time Grammy nominee Chloe Bailey, star of GROWN-ISH and half of the sibling musical duo Chloe x Halle, stars in a new cinematic musical event set in the world of Atlanta's competitive gospel youth choir praise teams.

From director Tina Gordon, writer-director of Little and the writer of What Men Wantand Drumline, Praise This follows aspiring musical superstar Sam (Chloe Bailey), a young woman driven, at almost any cost, to break into the music business. So, when her father (Philip Fornah; Richard Jewel, Better Call Saul), worried that Sam is associating with a dangerous crowd, moves them from Los Angeles to Atlanta to live with Sam's sunny cousin, Jess (Anjelika Washington; Stargirl, Tall Girl franchise), Sam is ...not happy.

But when Sam is forced to join her cousin's struggling, underdog praise team in the lead-up to a national championship competition, she sees an opportunity to finally make her dreams come true. What she discovers, though, is that ambition can command a high price and that praise is not about glory, but gratitude.
