One of the most common comments about all great power pop artists I’ve heard in interviews, is “if you’re such a musical genius, how come you’re not famous?” The point being that great musicians don’t do it for the fame or the money, but the compulsion to do what they love to do. This trailer for the documentary “Why Isn’t Chris von Sneidern Famous?” explores this subject in detail. Long time power pop fans have loved Chris’ work for years now, so to us powerpopaholics he has already “arrived” and I hope the film is more of a scathing indictment of the current entertainment press. I personally can’t wait to see this movie.
