A feature-length quest by documentary filmmaker Liam Barker, Voice of an Eagle delves deep into the life of the unsung master of American primitivism, outcast folk music and spiritual mysticism; Robbie Basho. An underground visionary, Basho influenced countless musicians such as John Fahey, Glenn Jones and Country Joe McDonald, decades before they themselves went on to become influential.
Artists Drew Wright (aka Wounded Knee) and Gavin Sutherland (aka Fudge Fingas) new project ‘Bards of Caledon & Other Lands’ is heavily inspired by the works of Basho, and the duo will compliment the screening with with spoken word and performance.
