Playing Metal in Nashville in the '70s and '80s was not a winning proposition. After years of slugging it out in clubs, it was time to get serious. (Well, kinda.)
It’s winter 1983. Mike and his brother Paulie decide to move from Nashville to Los Angeles on a whim to pursue their Heavy Metal dreams with their Irish bass-playing pal, Skully. Although Mike and his brothers grew up in a musical family in the heart of Country Music City, they took a different path.
The past, present, and future collide, as do some cars in this one-of-a-kind coming-of-age story. Let’s rock! 18+. Colorful language.
