Everyday Sunshine with Fishbone and Filmmakers Lev Anderson and Chris Metzler

Angelo Moore and John Norwood Fisher of Fishbone join BYOD with filmmakers Lev Anderson and Chris Metzler to talk about "Everyday Sunshine."
As usual, the band hold nothing back-from growing up back in the day, to police brutality and band friction, they exhibit the brilliant candor that Lev and Chris captured so well in their film.

GUEST BIO:
One of the greatest bands in the history of Los Angeles, Fishbone saw their ascendance during the alternative rock revolution undone by bizarre family circumstances and the clashing of disparate inspirations.

After graduating from the University of Southern California with a degree in business and cinema, Chris Metzler's film career has taken him from agency work, to coordinating post-production for movies.
Metzler co-directed John Waters's narrated documentary, Plagues&Pleasures on the Salton Sea,which premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival and later won both the HBO Producer's Award and the Robert Altman Award. He is a recipient of the Bay Area Video Coalition's AEA Award and has previously received funding support from the Pacific Pioneer Fund and the Fleishhacker Fund.

Everyday Sunshine is Lev Anderson's first feature film.
