about the project

Spearheaded by filmmaker Jean-Paul DiSciscio and sound designer Ross Matthei, DiSciscio says, “Ross and I had the idea to film mini-concerts in my 1985 Chevy Caprice after recording sound effects for our film, Bloody Henry, which features the car prominently. I tried to sell the Caprice for a hot minute, but only received low-ball offers. It made sense to just keep it on the road - it’s pretty much like driving a couch with wheels. The enormous size of the car fits five people, various instruments, and recording gear comfortably.”

FBGM released their first demo recording of “Dog Collar” in October via Bandcamp.
