From March through May, we hosted live, private Virtual Cinema events resembling a Film Festival experience, followed by engaging Q&A sessions. Our esteemed panel includes Annie from Vaureen (never-JW), Chad Rhiger from Daytrip, Ghost Army, and HighTV, and Ryan Sutter from The Lavone, Trumpet Marine, and more. Ryan is not only an incredible musician but also the co-founder of the Nuclear Gopher music production studio, a focal point of the documentary. Scott Homan, the film's director and our podcast's host, joins us as well.
We were fortunate to have exceptional guests in the audience who made valuable contributions throughout the event. Join us on this enlightening journey as we explore the incredible influence of music and self-expression in transforming and even saving lives.
