LED ZEPPELIN FILM – #ledzeppelinfilm
Now in post-production, the as yet untitled Led Zeppelin documentary, directed by Bernard MacMahon, celebrates the world’s best-selling rock band on their fiftieth anniversary. The documentary traces the journeys of the four members through the music scene of the 1960s, their meeting in the summer of 1968 for a rehearsal that will change the future of rock, and culminates in 1970 when their second album knocks The Beatles off the top of the charts and they become the number one band in the world.
With brand new interviews of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones, as well as rare archival interviews with the late John Bonham, this documentary will be the first of its kind; the Led Zeppelin story told through the words of the men that lived it, with no outside voices or conjecture. Featuring never before seen archive film and photographs, state of the art audio transfers of the band’s music, as well as the music that shaped their sound, this documentary will be the definitive telling of the birth of the world’s biggest selling rock band. It is the first and only time the band have participated in a documentary in fifty years.
Supple Jazz-Leaning Pop Hypnotises on Ceilings – Eleni Drake
“A love song I didn’t ever see myself writing. This took a total of about 15 minutes to write from start to finish. I guess I was feeling overwhelmed by the amount of time I had spent with this one particular person, and they were also the first person I let into my life since my previous relationship. This person made me feel free, helped me experience certain things for the first time, and although for a short time, I felt happy too. I wanted to see them all the time, because of the exaltation they gave me.”

Lyric Video Released for Dynamic New Single, “If I Was A House,” by New York Country Artist, Ken Wilber
“I knew that this song was special when I heard the Demo. When we cut this song at Ocean Way Studios, Nashville the song really took on a life of its own. When Michael Spriggs kicked off his acoustic guitar intro for the first time I was mesmerized. “If I was a House” is an anthem celebrating America, our family and our simple roots,” relates Ken Wilber. “This song really resonates with me as it celebrates rural America and all of the hardworking people who live there. This song is for the farmers and the truck drivers, school teachers, military, law enforcement and emergency personnel. This song is truly about everything that is happening behind the scenes to keep America running. The production on this song is really spot on, from the guitars, keyboards, drums and finally the wonderful harmony vocals, everyone did their part to make something special.”
