Fanny: The Right to Rock

Fanny: The Right to Rock

Sometime in ‘60s Sacramento, two Filipina-American sisters got together with other teenage girls to play music. Little did they know their garage band would morph into the legendary, ferocious rock group Fanny, one of the first all-women bands to sign with a major record label. Yet, despite releasing 5 critically acclaimed albums, touring with bands from Slade to Chicago and amassing a dedicated fan base of music legends including David Bowie, Fanny's groundbreaking impact in music was written out of history…until now. Charting their formation, rise, fall, and more recent reformation 50 years later, the doc covers the misogyny, bigotry and other roadblocks they faced along the way. Featuring incredible archival footage, the film includes interviews with music icons including Def Leppard's Joe Elliott, Bonnie Raitt, The Go-Go's Kathy Valentine, Todd Rundgren, The Runaways' Cherie Currie, Lovin' Spoonful's John Sebastian, The B52's Kate Pierson, Charles Neville and David Bowie guitarist and bassist Earl Slick and Gail Ann Dorsey.
