Carmine Street Guitars, the surprise-hit documentary by award-winning Toronto-based filmmaker Ron Mann premieres June 25th on iTunes (Canada). Exclusive to Apple TV are 30 minutes of additional bonus performances by musicians Steve Gunn, Bill Kirchen, Mary Halvorson, Julie Byrne, Popa Chubby, Willie Nile, The Sadies and Vieux Farka Touré.
Carmine Street Guitars is an intimate portrait of five days in the life of the fabled Greenwich Village guitar store. Featuring a cast of prominent musicians, it captures an all-too-quickly vanishing way of life. Rolling Stone called the film “a love letter to New York” and “an absolutely essential documentary about the importance of community.”
Carmine Street Guitars is released by Films We Like and was produced by Sphinx Productions in association with Crave (formally The Movie Network) Bell Media,
Telefilm Canada, Ontario Creates and the Rogers Cable Network and Documentary Fund.
