MOMz HOT ROCKs is a feature length original music documentary on the emergence of mom rock bands in America and abroad. The wave of maternal minded rock bands include: Housewives on Prozac (New York); Frump (Dallas); The Mydols (Detroit); Placenta (Oakland); and The Candy Band (Detroit). All are featured in MOMz HOT ROCKs which captures the 2004 beginning of the continually increasing media attention as these bands meet each other and converge in NYC for Mamapalooza in May of 2005. MOMz follows Joy Rose and the journey of the bands thru May of 2006 when Mamapalooza has spread to over 30 cities worldwide including those in England, Canada, and Australia.
Being in a band is likened to being in a marriage. Never mind the laundry, the balancing act only intensifies as tasks increase with both family and blossoming new musical careers. . Joy Rose (Housewives on Prozac) used music to energize herself while recovering from a kidney transplant.
MOMz HOT ROCKs is more than a documentary and more than a music video, it combines the best of both of these burgeoning genres and brings the audience a look into how women--MOMz, take on the world, manage their lives, raise great kids, and make music that will rock your socks off.
“ The rules of motherhood are being radically rewritten with a snarl, cymbal crash and power E-chord that would make the lads in AC/DC stand and salute.”
