Director Jason Orr in person for Q&A!
From the late 1980s to the early 2000s, Atlanta’s underground music scene had a renaissance that pivoted around the FunkJazz Kafe Arts & Music Festival. Here, a new generation of soul singers hit the stage, reinventing the form that was once at the height of mainstream music. The film also explores why there are so few soul bands in today’s commercial music scene. Narrated by Chuck D with appearances by Cornel West, Cee Lo Green, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, George Clinton, N'Dea Davenport, Doug E. Fresh, Roy Ayers, Jamie Foxx and many others, FunkJazz Kafé is chock full of great performance footage.
