Robyn Hitchcock's Sundance Channel Documentary
Music fans of all genres might want to check out a great doucumentary about Robyn Hitchcock that's showing on the Sundance Channel on March 30 and 31st.
I watched it last night and enjoyed every bleeding second of it.
Here's how the doc is described: "One heady week last summer, Robyn recorded a group of new songs in his London house , with help from famous musician friends, including REM's lead guitarist Peter Buck, legendary songwriter Nick Lowe and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin."
This documentary eavesdrops on Robyn at work as he adds to his stockpile of dark ,witty and surreal rock songs and explores with contributors including Gillian Welch and David Rawlings what makes Hitchcock's songs so memorable. The film culminates with the band taking the songs on the road in America for Robyn's latest album Ole Tarantula. Includes live performances of 15 new and old songs!
