Larry
Keel - An Unlikely Film Star The documentary is a year in the life of Larry Keel as he travels across the USA in search of bigger audiences to play to. They go from coast to coast all through 2002 with James and his one camera never far away. During the documentary you see things very similar to my own encounters with Larry with audiences ranging from small crowds of not so enthusiastic people to standing ovations at world renowned bluegrass festivals. The film was shot for a mere $7000 with director Gielen living as cheaply as possible even spending many nights sleeping in his car to save budget. he followed Larry and the band as night after night he ploughed on making the music in city after city and all the while slowly but surely adding more and more fans. The documentary features some people who are Larry Keel
fans who you might even have heard of including Tony Rice and Vassar
Clements. Then of course there are Larry and Jenny Keel the only permanent
members of the Larry Keel Experience. and for more on the movie see; and finally for the movie show time at Merlefest go
