TLC FOREVER!!! From 1991, TLC emerged as ICONS in music. Despite ups and downs, from bankruptcy to success, they transformed from a manufactured group to sisters who took over America with their blend of funk, hip hop, and RnB with a political edge. Now, after nearly 30 years, they still aim for new heights 👑

Happy new week Doc’n Rollers! Sharing another doc havin it’s WORLD Premiere at #docnrollfest this year: STORM HEAVEN traces the extraordinary odyssey of three Swansea youngsters who forged a resounding rock band, Trampolene, surging from local stages to London’s vibrant music scene. The film encapsulates the profound camaraderie between the band members, united by an unwavering bond and shared devotion to their artistry.
Traversing from local gigs to international acclaim, the doc unflinchingly captures their journey’s crescendos, punctuated by the lead singer’s courageous battle with Crohn’s disease. Storm Heaven is a testament to the unbreakable bonds of friendship, unadulterated passion for music, and the sheer tenacity of artistic spirits. Through their music, struggles, and exhilarating performances, Trampolene’s story emerges as an inspiring anthem to transcendence and rocking the world.

Beaming in on this sunny afternoon with some exciting Doc’n Roll film news‼️
We are delighted to partner with Spiritland to present the UK Premiere of Born Balearic: Jon Sa Trinxa and The Spirit of Ibiza.
14 June, 6.15pm at everymancinema Kings Cross + you’ll definitely want to stick around after for a Q&A and afterparty DJ set with Jon Sa Trinxa at Supermax 🔥
TIX! 🤝 https://shorturl.at/dLMUV
Adjacent to Ibiza’s Party Capital Resident DJ Jon Sa Trinxa has spent a quarter of a century on the beach spinning an eclectic mix of musical styles that stir the hearts of the Balearic artist community. Jon’s music is Balearic: an undefinable, fluid, kaleidoscopic blend that defies genres, but more importantly reflects the values of the island’s permanent residents.
Born Balearic is an abstract audiovisual exploration of the community that has heard its own voice in his music: an international collection of creatives and craftspeople and thinkers that includes a leather artisan from Paris, a Kurdish new-age musician from Iran, a former New Yorker who publishes a newspaper that reports only optimistic news, and various other members of Ibiza’s cultural scene. All of these people have made their lives on this island, and they all share an ecosystem with Jon, representing Balearic culture and Jon’s transcendent music is this culture’s soundtrack
