My first full-length documentary produced for Directv under Guitar Center Films. While reading Slash’s autobiography, the idea struck me to reframe the stories told in a documentary format, featuring many of the artists and personalities featured in the book. I shared the concept with Slash’s manager, Jeff Varner and then brought Directv on board to finance and broadcast the project.
The film features Slash and his incredible backstory alongside an A-list roster of artists including Dave Grohl, Lemmy, Joe Perry, Jerry Cantrell, Nikki Sixx, Alice Cooper, Matt Sorum, Duff McKagan, and many more.
The filmed aired in primetime on national television in over 100 million households, and subsequently internationally in Europe, South America, Canada, and Japan. The film was also released on iTunes, Amazon and on Bluray.
