This special event will feature a screening of the Holy Modal Rounders documentary, Bound to Lose, followed immediately by a rare performance by the Velocity Ramblers, featuring iconic playwright and actor Sam Shepard and original members of the Holy Modal Rounders.

From their origins in New York's Greenwich Village folk scene and their involvement in the Easy Rider soundtrack, Bound To Lose recounts the unique forty-year history of these true American originals. With startling intimacy, Bound to Lose also documents the band's arduous, amusing, and sometimes heartbreaking struggle to capitalize on their recent resurgence in popularity, culminating in an unpredictable 40th anniversary concert in Portland, Oregon. More than just a chronicle of an obscure band, Bound To Lose is a raucous celebration of a lost American outlaw subculture as it draws its final rebellious breaths.
