Details

Before the Go-Go’s or the Riot Grrrl movement, there was Fanny, the first all-women rock band to be signed by a major label, record five albums, and tour internationally. Championed by David Bowie, Bonnie Raitt, Joe Elliot and others, Fanny defied the “isms” through undeniable talent. This 2021 film directed by Bobbi Jo Hart profiles the band and features archival footage, new material, and interviews with numerous music icons about the band’s impact.
