When his love of music lands him an assignment from Rolling Stone magazine to interview the up-and-coming band Stillwater -- fronted by lead guitar Russell Hammond and lead singer Jeff Bebe William embarks on an eye-opening journey with the band's tour, despite the objections of his protective mother.
(2000) Director: Cameron Crowe
PRE-SHOW ENTERTAINMENT:
Youth on Record showcase featuring iZCALLi and Michelle Rocqet.
iZCALLi has become one of the most recognized and beloved bands in the Denver. The success they have garnered through 12 years of existence, 3 LP’s and hundreds of shows has not come easy. iZCALLi’s unique blend of styles has been carefully sculpted with a relentless work ethic, pride and authentic passion for the music the band puts out to the world. Engaging performances, a high energy live spectacle is what iZCALLi is all about.
Michelle Rocqet is a Denver-based singer-songwriter, beatboxer, composer, producer, and educator who rose through the ranks of the local DIY scene with her bandmates of The Milk Blossoms. They’ve been called “one of Denver’s most innovative bands” (303 Magazine), “gut-wrenching” (Westword), and “an amalgam of outsider pop” (Queen City Sounds). She released her debut single “Interview” last spring. Westword described the song as “a yearning R&B love song that showcases the breadth of her skills as a vocalist — from breathy torch singer to dramatic diva." She has contributed music to Colorado Public Television programming, Carnegie Hall's Musical Explorers, Meow Wolf Denver, Colorado History Museum, and Phamaly Theatre Company. She holds a B.S. in Music Entertainment and Industry Studies with a double concentration in Recording Arts and Vocal Performance from the University of Colorado Denver.
