Sounds of Summer: New Music Documentaries 2012 presents How to Grow a Band: Chris Thile and Punch Brothers at The Jacob Burns Film Center

WFUV Presents

Details

Five virtuosic musicians including the unparalleled mandolin player Chris Thile came together to form Punch Brothers, one of the most accomplished acoustic roots bands ever assembled. For two years filmmaker Mark Meatto followed them on tour, in the studio, on the street, and at home and put it all together in this thoughtful film—a riveting exploration of the nature of creativity, the tensions between individual talents and group identity, between art and commerce, and between innocence and wisdom.
