Sarah McLachlan, Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt, Erykah Badu Headline ‘Lilith Fair’ Documentary Co-Produced by Dan Levy’s ‘Not A Real Production Company’

Dan Levy, Elevation Pictures and White Horse Pictures are behind a CBC film about the 1990s groundbreaking music festival that put women first, and performing back-to-back on a concert stage, in a male-dominated pop industry.

Over a quarter-century later, Dan Levy ’s Not a Real Production Company and Elevation Pictures are co-producing Lilith Fair, with interviews by McLachlan, Bonnie Raitt, Sheryl Crow, Erykah Badu, Natalie Merchant, Mýa, Jewel, Indigo Girls, Emmylou Harris, Brandi Carlile and Olivia Rodrigo. The original ladies-first Lilith Fair tour from 1997 to 1999 attracted artists like Crow, Tracy Chapman, Fiona Apple and Liz Phair from across the music world, and went on to help launch the careers of performers like Missy Elliott, The Chicks, Nelly Furtado and Christina Aguilera. I want to give a deeper understanding of the festival to the young female, nonbinary and queer musicians and music fans who picked up a guitar or tickets to a concert for the first time because Lilith showed them how,” director Pankiw said in a statement.
