WINNING AMERICA
The Story of A Canadian Band. Trying to Make it in The States.
Juno Award winning Said the Whale touring the United States for the first time earlier this year and CBC was there to document the experience. CBC followed Said the Whale to Austin, Texas for SxSW and to all the stops in between.
The documentary was produced by Jon Siddall (CBC Radio 2) & Brent Hodge (CBC Radio 3) and directed by Brent Hodge & Thomas Buchan (Battle of the Bagpipes, Hope).
WINNING AMERICA will make its television debut Saturday, July 23rd on CBC in British Columbia. After the debut, hopefully the rest of Canada will get to see it too.
To give you an idea of what you’ll see in the doc, here’s the trailer. As an added bonus, check out the live performance video of a special show right before the tour.
