Murder in the Front Row: The San Francisco Bay Area Thrash Metal Story
Self
Se podemos dizer que o thrash metal tem um berço, sem dúvida será a região de San Francisco Bay Area. Metallica, Megadeth, Exodus, Anthrax, Testament e Slayer saíram de suas garagens para tomar o mundo com guitarras rascantes, riffs complexos e letras politizadas herdadas do punk. Uma história que passou a se repetir ao redor do mundo, onde adolescentes de bairro se juntam para fazer um som rápido, pesado e ameaçador. Mas, no final, o que realmente importa é a amizade.
Born In Chicago
Producer
"Born In Chicago" is a soulful documentary film that chronicles a uniquely musical passing of the torch. It’s the story of first generation blues performers who had made their way to Chicago from the Mississippi Delta and their ardent and unexpected followers – young white, middle class kids who followed this evocative music to smoky clubs deep in Chicago’s ghettos. There, against all odds, they were encouraged by the greats who had became their musical mentors and learned the art of the blues at the feet the masters, going on to make the music their own.
