FANNY: The Right to Rock celebrates the untold story of a Filipina American founded garage band that morphed into the ferocious rock group Fanny, the first band of women to release an LP with a major label (Warner/Reprise, 1970). Despite releasing five critically acclaimed albums, counting David Bowie as one of their most vocal fans, Fanny's groundbreaking impact in music has been lost in the mists of time... until bandmates reunite 50 years later with a new rock record deal and chance to right the wrongs of music history. Also features music icons Bonnie Raitt, Joe Elliott, Kathy Valentine, Todd Rundgren, Kate Pierson, John Sebastian, Cherie Currie, Charles Neville, Gail Ann Dorsey, Earl Slick and Jeff "Skunk" Baxter.
