Everywhere Man is a feature-length documentary inspired by musician, producer, and manager Peter Asher’s celebrated cabaret show A Musical Memoir of the ’60s and Beyond.
From his early years as a child actor in 1950s London, Asher emerges in the swinging sixties as one half of the pop duo “Peter and Gordon,” recipients of four chart-topping hits penned by Paul McCartney; morphing to the first head of A&R at Apple Records; and co-owner of the Indica Gallery, the epicenter of London’s countercultural art scene.
Asher helped define a generation of singer-songwriters as producer and manager for James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, and others throughout the 1970s and ‘80s. In the present day, he remains a vital creative force, still performing, producing, and recently collaborating with Barbra Streisand on her acclaimed The Secret of Life duets album.
Featuring intimate interviews with many artists including James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Carole King, Lyle Lovett, Marianne Faithfull, Paul Shaffer, and Paul McCartney, as well as cultural icons Steve Martin, Eric Idle, Twiggy, and Pattie Boyd. Everywhere Man paints a vibrant portrait of a man whose life intersects with some of the greatest artists and moments of the last six decades.
Reviews
Every now and then a show-business documentary comes along that catches my fancy and lingers in my mind for days. There are so many colorful stories revealed in this highly entertaining, unabashedly nostalgic film. Leonard Matin/leonardmaltin.com
The archival footage of concerts and studio sessions assembled by directors Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine is a total blast, and this bighearted, culturally rich film entertains from beginning to end. Thelma Adams/AARP films for grownups
We'd all be wise to take a cue from this everywhere man and embrace each opportunity and person that comes our way. Rachel Ho/Exclaim!

With his once-promising musical career over due to his sensitivity to sound, gifted young piano tuner Niki White (Leo Woodall) works across New York with his mentor Harry Horowitz (Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman), encountering a range of characters, including composition student Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu), with whom he forges an unexpected connection.
Niki's heightened sense of hearing draws the attention of criminals, who see his talents as useful for more than tuning Steinways. Soon this connection threatens his budding romance with Ruthie and pulls him into increasingly dangerous territory.
The casting is perfectly precise, with Hoffman providing welcome gravitas before effectively abandoning the drama to an exceptional Woodall. Kevin Maher/The Times (UK)
Grab your favorite moviegoing partner and watch Tuner surrounded bv an audience. This is how all films were meant to be seen, especially ones that tell a gripping story in a way that feels fresh and original. Leonard Malton/leonard\leonardmaltin.com
This is truly Woodall’s show, the White Lotus actor embodying the easy charm of Ryan Gosling with the five-paces-ahead poise of Matt Damon. Roher gives him the tools for the job, but Woodall cases the joint clean. Barry Hertz/Globe & Mail
