The film chronicles the tribulations of a fictional, feminist, hard-core punk band that recruits a male lead guitarist for their first tour, and all hell breaks loose! Three months of band rehearsals before we recorded the grimy score, written by renowned conductor Scott Macmillan of the SNS Orchestra.Made several appearances on television promoting my music, including a segment on a TV show, which was broadcast live to millions of viewers: I'd not heard any of the tracks prior to the broadcast and got only one take to sing the vocals...hey, that's live TV for ya! It went over very well, and I met a great collaborator thanks to the show.Cast from thousands of US / nation-wide hopefuls as a performer on VH1's, "Viva La Rock": a reality-TV show that asked the question, "Who answers 'musicians wanted' ads?"
