All Tomorrow's Parties Film, featuring Grinderman, hits the big screen!
Warp Films and ATP have programmed a unique UK cinematic/live tour of the
documentary ALL TOMORROW'S PARTIES screening together with a live concert
from Brooklyn based art-rockers Les Savy Fav plus a DJ set by ATP founder
Barry Hogan, from 23 October 2009, prior to the DVD release on 9 November
2009.
Condensing 600 hours of footage from 200 contributors including fans and
musicians that have attended recent festivals, All Tomorrow's Parties is the
result of a project to document the legendary cult music festival from it’s
beginnings. With key contributions from co-director Jonathan Caouette
(Tarnation) and cinematographer Vincent Moon (The Take Away Shows, Arcade
Fire) and featuring amongst others: Belle And Sebastian, Grizzly Bear, Sonic
Youth, Battles, Portishead, Daniel Johnston, Grinderman, David Cross, Animal
Collective, The Boredoms, Mogwai, Slint, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Gossip, GZA,
Seasick Steve, Iggy and the Stooges, F**k Buttons, Shellac, Patti Smith and
John Cooper Clark.
The film's been described as 'a rousing, kaleidoscopic celebration of the
seaside indie-rock festival' (Time Out), and together with Les Savy Fav’s
jaw dropping stage antics, audiences will experience what happens when
experimental film and music collide in these one off special events. The
"one night only" theatrical tour, with Les Savy Fav, will visit Manchester,
Glasgow, Leeds and London from Oct 23 – 28, with special screenings also
taking place in Brighton and Bristol
