Three Musicians follows a jazz saxophonist, a techno artist, and a traveling singer-songwriter as they produce music based on the sights and sounds they find in the world around them.  Using a mishmash of home videos, original footage, and visual effects, the film explores how a passion for music has influenced the lives of Kevin Pike, Devon Hughes, and Kristy Kruger.

Through the songwriting of Kristy Kruger, we discover what it is like to be a modern day troubadour.  Her long stretches on the open road and the time she spends away from her friends and family is at once liberating and lonesome.  At times, her only companion is a diary she has kept for over twenty years and a few photographs of loved ones.  Yet, through her writings and lyrics, Kristy finds ways to persevere and uncover the sweeter side to living as a traveling musician.

Through the eyes of Kevin Pike, we see how sounds can become colors and how those colors evolve into the syncopated rhythms of jazz.  Yet, Kevin is more than just a jazz saxophonist.  In his recordings, he performs drums, piano, guitar, and a variety of other instruments.  He is also a husband, a father, and a 9 to 5 computer technician.  Balancing these roles requires ingenuity and leads him to some unexpected discoveries about what can inspire new music.

In the technology-based world of Devon Hughes, we experience how disconnected images and ideas can be fused into high-energy techno music.  A modified circuit-board can become an instrument for self-expression.  A pattern in a skyscraper can become a driving bass groove.  Using music as his guide, Devon explores how his love for technology and his own spiritual beliefs drive him to find the common ground between man and his artificial creations.

Together, these three musicians provide unique insight into why we make music.  With little fanfare and even less financial reward, they quietly pursue their musical aspirations and in doing so expose the forces behind human creativity.  Filmed over a period of six years and incorporating more than two-thousand hours of video and audio recordings, this documentary offers an original view of musicianship in modern-day America.
