DOCUMENTARY FiLMMAKER CHRiS METZLER AND HiS FiLM EVERYDAY SUNSHiNE - THE STORY OF FiSHBONE 
DECEMBER 15, 2011 -
From the shifting faultlines of Hollywood fantasies and the
economic and racial tensions of Reagan's America, FISHBONE rose to
become one of the most original bands of the last 25 years. With a
blistering combination of punk and funk they demolished the walls of
genre and challenged the racial stereotypes and political order of the
music industry and the nation. Telling it like it is, the iconic
LAURENCE FISHBURNE narrates EVERYDAY SUNSHINE, a story about music,
history, fear, courage and funking on the one. At the heart of
the film's story is lead singer ANGELO MOORE and bassist NORWOOD FISHER
who show how they keep the band rolling out of pride, desperation and
love for their art. To overcome money woes, family strife, and the
strain of being aging Punk rockers on the road, NORWOOD and ANGELO are
challenged to re-invent themselves in the face of dysfunction and
ghosts from a painful past. Featuring interviews with FLEA,
GWEN STEFANI, ICE-T, PERRY FARRELL, BRANFORD MARSALIS, GEORGE CLINTON,
TIM ROBBINS, GOGOL BORDELLO, ?UESTLOVE, and others, EVERYDAY SUNSHINE
traces the band's history, influence, and struggle as individualistic,
genre-blending artists up against an unforgiving music industry that
threatens to pass them by.

LUSH holds a BA in Creative Writing from the UNIVERSITY OF
NEW MEXICO. He established ROCKWIRED on New Years of 2004 and hasn't
looked back
since. He is currently the host of all of ROCKWIRED.COM's programming
which includes such shows as ROCKWIRED RADIO PROFILES and ROCKWIRED
FREE FORM RADIO. As
program producer for ROCKWiRED.COM, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED's
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE. "Those were the days before the
internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable." says LUSH "But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I'd be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I'm the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions."CONTACT
