The Wrecking Crew Trailer

The 1960s was an incredible decade for music, with the likes of Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra, Sonny & Cher, The Monkees and many, many others producing timeless hits that remain in the world's consciousness to this day. However, little do people know the reason for all these genius hits, for the catchy melodies and iconic hooks; behind every great artist of the day was a band unlike any other. The Wrecking Crew were probably the most sought after session musicians of the era, producing beats for all areas of the West Coast Sound, winning Grammys and become just as rich as the people they were supporting - and yet the general public remained widely oblivious to the music industry's secret weapon. They may have been ever-evolving, but these LA artists were still top choice for the biggest stars, namely Phil Spector who dubbed them 'The Phil Spector Wall of Sound Orchestra'.

The world can finally get to see this remarkable documentary about one of music's best kept secrets, having been completed for seven years already. At the helm of 'The Wrecking Crew' is Denny Tedesco (the song of Wrecking Crew guitarist Tommy Tedesco) in his directorial debut, and the film features a variety of interviews with the likes of Brian Wilson, Cher, Nancy Sinatra and Herb Alpert, as well as rare archival studio footage. Nominated for the Music Documentary Award by the International Documentary Association, the documentary is released in the UK on June 26th 2015.
