Given his somewhat unhealthy obsession with music documentaries, Mark takes the lead on this episode. Focussing on five lesser known documentaries, covering the stories of some really interesting bands. From the challenges of touring in a small van, for weeks on end, to dealing with profound loss. All these films have something in common, they are all: fascinating, entertaining and heartbreaking . The thread that links them all is they are all artists with an uncompromising attitude, the drive to create and a desire to connect with people in their own unique way.
Links to all the documentaries discussed are included below.
