Paul McCartney, Elton John and more appear in a trailer for Mary McCartney’s upcoming Abbey Road documentary, If These Walls Could Sing. Premiering in September at the Telluride Film Festival, the doc is set for release on December 16 through Disney+ and in select theaters.

Abbey Road’s website detailed the new film:

If These Walls Could Sing is a passionate account of the world’s first purpose-built recording studio spanning 91 years. From our beginnings recording the greats of classical music, to hosting dance hall and big band stars, witnessing the birth of British rock & roll, producing a prolific string of hits in the 1960s, facilitating Oscar-winning film scores and seeing the rise of hip-hop idols. Mary’s film brings to life the magic that continues to echo within the walls of No. 3 Abbey Road.

Mary McCartney, Paul and Linda McCartney’s daughter, also shared what inspired her to make If These Walls Could Sing:

“Abbey Road Studios have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around the corner and have early memories of going to visit my parents while they were recording…A photograph of my mum leading our pony Jet across Abbey Road’s zebra crossing sparked these memories again. Walking by the studios and watching people gather on the crossing to have their photos taken, people who had made the journey from all over the world, made me realize the significance of Abbey Road. There is something truly special about this place; it is much more than a building — it’s a shrine to creative, original thinkers and a treasure-trove of stories.”

Also sharing their stories are Ringo Starr, Jimmy Page, Nile Rodgers, Kate Bush, Noel Gallagher, John Williams, Celeste, Giles Martin, Shirley Bassey, Liam Gallagher, Roger Waters and more.
