Musical performances by Grammy nominated drummer Scott Amendola, Jon Evans, bass player with Tori Amos, Marc Von Em, vocals and guitar with Rob Thomas, Nakia featured on the Voice and many other great talents who helped bring this story based on true events, to life. Pandemic be damned.
We are thrilled to introduce this original work to you and bring this show to a live audience. Peace out.
About the Show About the Story It's the 1990's and Charley, a broody working-class guy and reluctant frontman of an up-and-coming indie rock band, discovers a note that brings him on the verge of finding the father who abandoned him. Unaware of the burgeoning digital revolution that will change the music industry forever, the band gets its first big break. Facing loss in times of great change, courage and confidence are elusive, opportunities for independent artists are fleeting. Should he move on or wait for his time to come around? Bringing back wack slacks and fuzz, this is a generation-gone-by story about a fatherless son, the brotherhood of a band and what it means to let go. Podcast play_arrow Info Deck About the Story Cast
