Long associated with mavericks and rebels in the music world, iconic footwear brand Dr. Martens has announced a first-ever Music and Film Series. Highlighting voices that aren’t generally heard in the mainstream, the Dr. Martens Presents Music & Film Series is proud to celebrate the tenacious musicians living in the L.A. and NYC music scenes through a handful of rare concert events and mini documentary films around these artists. The Dr. Martens Music & Film Series will be part of a larger national campaign for the brand that will kick-off this week. For more information on the Dr. Martens Music & Film Series, visit: Here.
For the Dr. Martens Music & Film Series, L.A.-based filmmaker Erik Rojas and NYC-based filmmaker Vincent Martell have curated a lineup of 11 musicians that will share their stories of resilience and determination. They will explore what it takes to succeed as performers realizing their own artistic vision in the music industry. Each L.A. and NYC concert event as well as the short documentary films created will provide an intimate look at the daily lives of working musicians and share a unique point of view as told by our filmmakers who have their own stories of resilience to tell.
Confirmed music artists for the Dr. Martens Presents: Music & Film Series include Samia, Junglepussy, PJ, De’Wayne Jackson, L.A. Witch, The Paranoyds, SadGirl, OSHUN, Combo Chimbita, Phony Ppl and Death Valley Girls.
Expect the full slate of Dr. Martens Presents Music & Film Series NYC and L.A. concerts to be announced next week.
