One-man bands. Showmen, eccentrics, loners. Adam Clitheroe’s feature documentary is a funny and moving portrait of contemporary musicians who play as one-person acts. With an eclectic array of musical styles, ranging from theremin rock to hurricane drum solos and a backing band made of bicycle wheels, these one-man bands bring to the stage noise and spectacle worthy of a whole band, but at a fraction of the budget. We meet a selection of contemporary one-man bands from Europe and the USA and join them for their lonely existence on the road.
Featuring: Thomas Truax, Man From Uranus, Duracell, Ninki V, Honkeyfinger, The Two Tears and Dennis Hopper Choppers
