We’re starting casting for the title role of Julie, the pinball donut girl, and Jack, Julie’s unsuitable boyfriend. Also casting for Fraternity Brothers.
I’ll post a link to the sfcasting.com casting call when it is up.
Come join the fun!
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.
A wonderful new friend, Eric Brace has generously donated one of his excellent songs, Doughnut Girl, to PBDG. Eric fronts Last Train Home and performs duo work with Peter Cooper. Eric and Peter have a live stagit show TONIGHT. Check them out.
This is good friend and PBDG musician, blues man Rude Dog Rudy Strukoff. Rudy and I work on several projects together; check out a little road trip video we made while scouting locations over the summer.
Another long time collaborator and mentor, Brian Holmes is a musician, widely published composer, and physicist. What physicist can resist pinball?
I’m so grateful to have all these talented folks as part of the Pinball Donut Girl team. Please join them in supporting the project.

I am so pleased to announce that Mutiny Radio and Cafe has partnered with Pinball Donut Girl. Mutiny has long been an inspiring place to me: I’ve spent many pleasant evenings there drinking great coffee, editing footage, working on production schedules and generally soaking up the creative vibe that fills the cafe.
I’m super excited to be filming key Pinball Donut Girl scenes at Mutiny.
