More about:

Doc’n Roll Festival - the winter music film event - has announced that it will launch the UK's first streaming platform dedicated to music documentaries. Doc ’n Roll TV will collect all of the best from the vibrant arena of music documentaries. 

In a month’s time, Doc’n Roll Festival will show a series of this year’s best music documentaries across the capital, but you needn’t wait that long to clap your eyes on some of the best music-themed film work.

Today, Doc’n Roll TV launches, promising to host the best in the genre, no matter how niche or adventurous bigger streaming services deem them. From right now, you can see eleven of the best films shown in previous editions of Doc’n Roll Festival’s six-year history. 

New titles will be added monthly, but right now you can watch A Joyful Noise: Sun Ra (2016), Gospel According To Al Green (1984) and So Which Band is Your Boyfriend In? (2018) and several other excellent flicks online here.

There's a small fee to watch each film, which the Festival’s founder Colm Forde describes as “a hand-picked selection of under-the-radar music documentaries, most of which premiered at past editions of Doc’n Roll Film Festival.”

This year’s festival begins on 1 November and has added a late showing on 11 November at Rio Cinema with the film Rip Up The Road - A Film About Foals, a live concert film that will host a Q+A with the director and members of Foals after its world premiere in Dalston.
