PBDG musicians in new rockumentary

Gretchen King and the Phantods are the subject of a new feature length documentary releasing later this month! gretchen-king Meet the Phantods follows the band over more than a year as they perform and tour, honing their act.

The Phantods have been huge supporters of Pinball Donut Girl, and their music is featured along with Ten Ton Mojo, Lisa’s Big Night Out, and Clint Baker.

If you will be in the Columbus area on July 20, definitely head to the Grandview Theatre for the premiere of Meet the Phantods.

Ten Tons of Pinball

Meet some of the musicians that are part of Pinball Donut Girl, like Ten Ton Mojo, above.

Guitarist Scott Lano is huge into pinball (he put together the fantastic NY launch party for Stern’s Tron) and is working with the band to create and record original music for PBDG.

Clint Baker, member of Hot Club San Francisco and veteran jazz musician, is a great friend of mine and has contributed and recorded original music for past film projects.  I’m so lucky to have him on this project as well.  If you are in the bay area, stop and see Clint and his All Stars at Cafe Borrone on Friday nights.
