AUGUST CHRISTOPHER

 

THE NEW MOVIE "ALL OR NOTHING" WATCH IT NOW ON "AMAZON PRIME"


For every Foo Fighters, Katy Perry, Bon Jovi or Aerosmith, there are thousands of artists who may work just as hard, and could be just as talented, that NEVER make it.

"ALL OR NOTHING" (the story of August Christopher) is NOT a movie about fame and fortune, about perseverance paying off with that one, big break...

Edward Scott's debut film, which premiered to a full house at the 'NASHVILLE FILM FESTIVAL', with over 40 original songs and live performances, shows the band making a living with no management or booking agent - doing everything themselves, playing 250 shows/year for nearly 15 years, traveling in a beat-up van, pursuing their dream to become rock stars. "ALL OR NOTHING" shows the breakdowns, tragedies, triumphs and revelations using footage spanning the band's very first show in 1998 to setting their van on fire in 2013.

August Christopher's live show was fearless. Drumset diving, freestyle rapping and climbing speakers are only some of the antics lead singer Criss Cheatham would employ in his usual 'thong-and-cape' costumes. The band opened for countless national acts and was considered to be 'the next hottest band in America' by industry execs, who would eventually lose interest when the drugs, alcohol, and constant fighting took over.

After countless, costly efforts at fame (including a multi-media virtual concert, Guinness World Record setting feat and breaking into venues to shoot music videos), members find happiness in the free things in life - relationship with family, music and each other.
