The Project
The Anderson Fair Project is an initiative of Ghost Ranch Films in Houston to produce a feature-length documentary film titled For The Sake Of The Song: The Story of Anderson Fair. The film will document and preserve an important component of America's musical legacy, Houston's legendary folk and acoustic music venue, Anderson Fair Retail Restaurant.

For The Sake Of The Song is the story of a cultural treasure and the significant role it has played in preserving an American musical tradition. For nearly forty years, Anderson Fair has fostered and nurtured some of the most important musical performers and writers in the country including Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriters Nanci Griffith, Lyle Lovett and Lucinda Williams. This film will tell the compelling saga of a unique musical institution, its struggle to survive, and the family of devoted volunteers, patrons and artists who have contributed to the longevity of one of the oldest folk and acoustic music venues in continuous operation in the United States.
