Market Screening ‘The Rock Prophet: Link Wray’

Presented by Espresso Media International


The Rock Prophet is the best kept secret of Rock N Roll: only Rock’s mighty heroes know about Link Wray and his infamous 3 chords. Superstars such as Jimi Hendrix idolised him and Jimmy Page said he would have never picked up a guitar if he hadn’t heard him on the radio. This is the true story of a revered Native American musician who created the biggest cultural springboard for emerging musical talents and led to the creation of an entirely new genre of music. Featuring an A-list cast of rock legends such as Pete Townshend and Dan Auerbach, iconic music doc producers Cardinal Releasing tell Link’s story for the first time on screen. Why is it that most people don’t know about this foundational figure in rock history? The Rock Prophet: Link Wray looks at his life and asks why.
