In the midst of last February’s frigid grip on Maine, twenty-eight musicians agreed to be randomly placed into six new bands. Portland’s first 48 Hour Music Festival brings old friends, casual acquaintances and total strangers in from the cold to begin composing a twenty-five minute set two days before the scheduled performance at SPACE Gallery. Following the progress of each band in the festival as they compose and rehearse, The 48 Hour Music Festival Movie brings you into unassuming buildings and behind the closed doors of hidden practice spaces as a witness to the creative process of developing a band. Both fans and practitioners of music will find this collective effort among peers to be one of Portland’s inspiring events in the continuing evolution of its rock-solid music scene.
