Recalling Violetta's words, he follows Zomm to find Lightman ( Carl Weathers), a guitarist that says he needs Francis to play as his opening act. That night, Francis is visited by an alien Zomm ( Jason Schwartzman) who tells him he must meet Lightman. She tells Francis to look for Lightman's before she heads off, despite Francis not knowing of any such place in Calypso. The day before the concert, he meets an odd woman, Violetta (Caroline Kinley), who dares him to take risks, such as climbing a tree he had been scared of climbing before. However, Francis struggles with living in the shadow of his uncle and follow folk music when he really wants to play rock music.

On the 20th anniversary of his groundbreaking album during the 1970s, the town is holding a large festival, and Johnson's nephew, Francis Vendetti ( Michael Johnston), is expected to play Johnson's folk songs at a concert. The fictional town of Calypso, Colorado is the birthplace of the deceased folk-music legend, Johnson Vendetti. Besides running and jumping, Francis has a guitar which he can play to create various effects, such as interacting with the scenery or facing boss characters.
