Eyesonthebackdoor
Eyes on the Back Door is a documentary currently in production featuring the hottest bands in the jam scene. It strives to depict artists both on stage and backstage, giving the viewer an intimate view on the world of improvised music. This film focuses on the fans first. We want to provide you with the movie you’ve been waiting to see for years, and didn’t even realize. We want this to be YOUR film as much as it is ours. Production began last summer on the festival circuit at some of the country's premier music festivals such as Rothbury, Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, 10,000 Lakes, and Camp Bisco, just to name a few. Some of the bands featured so far have been The New Deal, The Egg, The Disco Biscuits, Perpetual Groove, Tea Leaf Green, Zach Deputy and many others. We've been traveling the country for a few months now by tour bus and been filming non-stop and making friends along the way. This year we plan on hitting every major festival, from Jam Cruise to Bear Creek, and individual concerts in between. If you plan on seeing live music this summer, you’re bound to meet us and we will show you a good time. We think of Eyes on the Back Door as an extension of the live music community which has been building for years. We’ll be looking for input and taking advices as we go along. If you hear a disco party coming from a trailer at 4am at Bonnaroo, it’s going to be from us. The fans are as important to us as the artists, and are truly the heart of this film. In addition, we’ll be selling mini-documentaries of your favorite bands from the footage we’ve already compiled, just to give you a taste of what we have to offer. These will allow you to get a feel for Eyes on the Back Door and what we’re all about, as well as give you a glimpse into the lives of your favorite bands. We plan on showcasing the bands everybody knows but also up-and-coming bands deserving of national exposure. Bands today have a hard time making it big, especially in this economy and struggling music industry. It seems as though people have stopped buying albums, as recently evidenced by the closing of the Virgin Megastore in Times Square. Music piracy is at an all time high. With that being said, a lot lies on a band producing a solid live show. You can't steal a concert. Even some of the best bands out there have a hard time making it, and the odds are certainly against them. Our film reveals the highs and lows of the concert industry. Eyes on the Back Door will showcase not only amazing musicians but America itself, as we will be making our way to all points of the country. Our goal is to have this film shown at both film and music festivals with a DVD release to follow.
