I Hate New Year’s

Filmed in Nashville, the holiday rom-com stars actress/singers Dia Frampton (runner-up in the inaugural season of “The Voice” and lead singer of the band Meg & Dia) and Ashley Argota (“The Fosters,” “Lab Rats,”), as well as Candis Cayne (“The Magicians,” “Grey’s Anatomy”) in a magical, dual role.

Featuring a soulful, high-energy, original soundtrack from award-winning composer Emer Kinsella, with five songs penned by Billy Steinberg and Josh Alexander, also known for their collaborations on Jojo’s “Too Little Too Late” and Demi Lovato’s “Give Your Heart a Break.” Steinberg is among the most successful songwriters of the past 35 years, co-writing five No. 1 singles on “Billboard’s” Hot 100 chart, including songs for Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Whitney Houston and The Bangles.

“I Hate New Year’s” features electric music performances by Frampton (“Flatline,” “Better in the Dark”), Argota (“Hours of the Night”), Frampton and Argota in a duet (“Our One Heart”) and bluesy, Nashville artist and 2015 “American Idol” competitor Gina Venier (“If I Was Your Girl”).

From Tello Films and DASH Productions, “I Hate New Year’s” was directed by Christin Baker from a screenplay by Kathryn Trammell, based on a story by Baker, Ashely Arnold, Danielle Jablonski and Kathryn Trammell.
