A 115-year-old paper mill in Appalachia shut down, taking a town's economic backbone with it. Papertown, a new documentary about that collapse, arrives with a title track from Dave Matthews. The film captures both the devastation and the resilience of the people left behind. Matthews calls it "heartbreaking, but still so hopeful. It's full of hope." He recorded the song specifically for the project, and you hear it in the trailer released today. The pairing makes sense. Matthews has long drawn from American working-class narratives in his songwriting. Here, he lends his name and voice to a story about deindustrialization that affects millions. The documentary treats Appalachia not as a punchline but as a place where real people confront real loss and find ways forward anyway. It's the kind of partnership that works when the artist actually understands what he's soundtracking.
