Ahead of the release of SUMAC's expansive new album The Healer and upcoming North American tour dates, Roadburn Festival have premiered a new documentary directed by Damien Neva titled Six Hours 42 Minutes with SUMAC. Filmed at the trio's recent show in Boston, Neva's 15min documentary is an intimate look at one of world's most respected experimental bands. The film not only captures the full cathartic force of the band's live performance, but also the liminal moments that make up touring life: sound checks and SUMAC's careful calibration of their sound to the dimensions of the performance space, conversations with the artists, even grabbing food or prepping to go on stage. It is an unpretentious, honest and highly illuminating portrait of some of improvised/avant/heavy music's most forward thinkers.
