Words + Music will feature iconic artists sharing stories about songs pivotal to their careers, followed by all-new performances of those songs either solo or with a band. The innovative visual adaptation will be shot on Amazon MGM Studio's volume stage, an immersive video environment, allowing the creation of dynamic visual narratives that complement each artist's storytelling.  As the artists' stories unfold, the environment around them will transform to reflect each anecdote and song, creating an intimate yet visually stunning experience.
