The Promised Land: A Swamp Pop Journey

Opis filmu

Opis oryginalny: angielski

The Promised Land is a film that takes you to the heart of South Louisiana's musical phenomenon - Swamp Pop. "8 members, 25 egos, 6 livers" A phrase thrown around by the members of the Lil' Band O' Gold; filmed in South-west Louisiana we meet this super group of cult and underground heroes and observe their lives, their music, their culture. Tracing founder member CC Adcock's search through the swamps and flatlands of South Louisiana we are pulled into a world of beauty. Lafayette and its surrounding parishes are a timeless, almost dreamlike place, where the colors, language, food and most definitely the music appear larger and more vivid than anywhere else in the great country, the USA. This backdrop is the canvas for the introduction of the band
