BLUES BEFORE SUNRISE! DVD ($19.95) The movie about Johnny Childs, one of the most determined human beings of our generation. PG 13 (some language) The film, a surprising and compelling story that represents the diverse personal and professional challenges a Jewish Blues musician faces through a very unusual journey! The story of Johnny Childs spans over 30 years, 4 continents, and decades of failure through his final push in the pursuit of becoming one of the most accomplished and unlikely success stories of the genre. With only six months to go he now "absolutely must get signed" to a major label before his 30th birthday... "This is not your father's blues documentary!" You can read more, watch movie trailer and Purchase the DVD at www.bb4sunrise.com read full synopsis: Meet Yonah Krohn, a.k.a. Johnny Childs. He's handsome, funny, shrewd, crude and maybe even slightly demented. But no doubt he is one sensational blues artist who has even been likened to a Picasso of the genre. Most importantly Johnny is one of the most determined human beings of our generation. So determined, that within six months, [before the day he turns 30] he's going to get signed to a major Blues record label, against all odds and by any means necessary. And shortly thereafter he will go on to win the "W.C. Handy Award" for "Best New Blues Artist of the Year", ...Or so he hopes. Along the journey into Johnny Childs’ world, we begin to understand the incredible personal history that fuels his tremendous musical passion. Eight years in the making, and culminated from over 200 hours of footage and other media, this film follows Johnny as a 12 year old runaway, through his restrictive Ultra-Orthodox Jewish upbringing in Toronto, dealing cocaine in Miami and a strange but spirited journey thru Boston, Jerusalem, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Ultimately, Blues Before Sunrise is a candid, off the wall story about human determination and a portrayal of passion, excess, risk-taking, fame and the pursuit of one's own personal happiness.
