When Rick (Paul Rudd), a past-his-prime wedding singer, meets fading boy-band star Danny (Nick Jonas) during a gig, the two bond over music and a late-night jam session.

With performances from Paul Rudd and Nick Jonas, POWER BALLAD a feel-good story about music, self-respect, friendship, and the price of ambition.
