A Broke Down Melody
The Moonshine Conspiracy stays true to the roots of surf filmmaking in releasing the anticipated fourth and latest project, “A Brokedown Melody” under the new banner, Woodshed Films. The title track is written & performed by Moonshiner Jack Johnson, who also showcases his surfing skills. The film explores the times, travels and experiences of a tribe of surfers who search for the spark of life and look to pass it on to the younger generation.
“A Brokedown Melody” takes a step back from the informative approach and allows the viewer to experience surfing in a different context. In a more traditional surf film format, “A Brokedown Melody” allows the visuals of the latest surfing combined with music, images and select commentary to tell the story of a surfer’s journey. Featured is the surfing of Kelly Slater, Tom Curren, Gerry Lopez, the Malloys, Rob Machado, CJ Hobgood, Jack Johnson and others. These surfers take us on their travels to Jamaica, Indonesia, Tahiti, Hawaii, Mexico and South America. Finally, in this age of big wave surf exploration, this film reveals Kelly Slater and the Malloys pioneering two new waves never before seen.
Music from: Jack Johnson, Eddie Vedder, Beta Band, Kings of Convenience, Doug Martsch, Matt Costa, and more.

FYI: From the same group of people who made Shelter and the September Sessions, along with Thicker than Water. So, likely to be some good stuff. It should also be available in shops as of right about now.
