FANNY: THE RIGHT TO ROCK

FANNY: THE RIGHT TO ROCK

NYC PREMIERE “Revivify Fanny. And my work is done,” said David Bowie. Fanny was the first rock band of women to release an LP with a major label, putting out five albums in the early 70s. They broke barriers of race, gender, and sexuality in a group that included two Filipina American sisters and queer musicians. Their music was lost in the mists of time until bandmates reunited 50 years later with a new rock record deal and a chance to right the wrongs of music history.  – Thom Powers
