Jack and Frank Baker are stuck in a rut. Playing the same tired tunes night after night; the brothers are in desperate need of change. So when they meet a sultry songbird named Susie Diamond, their future starts to sparkle. But when life in the limelight brings old rivalries to the surface as Jack and Susie's relationship heats up, the Baker boys soon find their act - and their lives - growing more entertaining than either of them may be able to handle!
