Sparrow Records singer/songwriter Bethany Dillon is garnering national media attention for her single, “Dreamer,” which is the end credit song of the October 21 DreamWorks motion picture, Dreamer: Inspired By A True Story. Dillon attended Sunday’s Hollywood premiere of the movie, where she walked the red carpet, spoke with media covering the event, and met the film’s stars, Kurt Russell, Dakota Fanning, and Kris Kristofferson, among others.
In conjunction with the film’s release, Dillon is scheduled to appear live on the October 16 broadcast of “CNN Sunday Morning.” During a segment that is also slated to include an interview with Fanning, Dillon will discuss her inspiration for the song “Dreamer,” which she co-wrote following a screening of the film earlier this year.
