Add a stick and some strings to a wooden cigar box and you’ve got an inexpensive musical instrument, a cigar box guitar. Each one is an original and some people say that each one has its own songs inside. These unique guitars and the people who make music with them are the subject of “Songs Inside The Box,” Sunday, June 20th at 2:00 p.m.SHOW ME NOW
I was searching for a documentary topic when I called a friend to pick his brain. “You could do a documentary on kudzu,” he said and I was drawn into a field of tangled vines that hold me to this day. That conversation was in 1994 and in it I learned that my friend’s mother made baskets by weaving kudzu vines.SHOW ME NOW
It was announced on December 30th, 2009 that “Songs Inside The Box,” the cigar box guitar documentary won an Honorable Mention award from the Los Angeles Reel Film Festival. “Songs Inside The Box” is a really fun documentary and I’d like for as many people as possible to see it. The people who are in the documentary are the reason it has won several awards.SHOW ME NOW
