Todd P Goes to Austin
Off the Record
As record labels die, independents thrive. In the wake of Napster, MySpace and Facebook there is a generation of artists creating and performing music on their own terms. With the help of legendary DIY rock promoter Todd Patrick, Brooklyn has become ground zero for these exciting young musicians. Follow Todd P as he sets up a series of free shows all over Austin, Texas. Using never-before-seen footage, including material shot by the bands themselves, the doc exposes what life is like surviving at the underground level. Featuring unforgettable live performances from Matt and Kim, Dan Deacon, Mika Miko, The DeathSet and many more. Director Jay Buim in attendance
