Everyone’s Getting Involved celebrates A24’s recent re-release of Stop Making Sense, Jonathan Demme’s groundbreaking concert film that was shot over three nights at Hollywood’s Pantages Theater in December 1983. The independent film company recently kicked off a new slate of theatrical screenings that will play in cities such as Chicago, London, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco.
So far, the only song released from the tribute album is Paramore's rendition of "Burning Down the House." It was dropped yesterday (January 31).
