EnterTalk Radio, the undisputed leader in music business talk and programming, announced that its popular podcast show "Jackie's Groove" featuring percussionist Jackie Bertone has joined forces with the upcoming documentary "Hired Gun" to put the spotlight on some great UNSUNG musicians who play alongside some of today's top artists.
The one-night-only event is in theaters nationwide on June 29 sponsored by Fathom Events. Watch the trailer for the film below!
"Hired Gun" is the story of the musical talent responsible for the most famous instrumental solos in the world, who have toured with the musical legends who hired them. The hired gun community lives and breathes music, and, for the first time, its members share their incredible stories and exclusive musical performances with the world in this inspiring new documentary.
They are recognized as some of the best musicians in the world, and include Jason Hook (Five Finger Death Punch), Liberty DeVitto (Billy Joel), Kenny Aronoff (John Mellencamp), Rudy Sarzo (Ozzy Osbourne), Phil X (Bon Jovi), Justin Derrico, Mark Schulman (P!NK), Ray Parker Jr. (Ghostbusters), Jason Newsted (Metallica), Eric Singer (KISS), John 5 (Rob Zombie), Glen Sobel, Nita Strauss (Alice Cooper), Steve Lukather (Michael Jackson, Toto), Steve Vai (David Lee Roth), Paul Bushnell (Katy Perry), Jay Graydon (Steely Dan), Derek St. Holmes (Ted Nugent), Chris Johnson (Rihanna), music producer David Foster, and featuring Alice Cooper and Rob Zombie, and more. These "hired guns" have mastered their craft and performed on the greatest stages and in high-intensity recording sessions, yet rarely receive credit for their work. In the vein of the 2014 Academy Award©-winning doc "20 Feet from Stardom," "Hired Gun" details the highs and lows of touring life, the demands of session schedules, and the dedication required to play backseat to some of rock's most iconic musicians.
"EnterTalk Radio is to go-to source for great interviews, stories and content about the music industry like the Jackie's Groove interviews of the Hired Gun cast," said Florentino Buenaventura, CEO of EnterTalk Radio.
