Addicted to Plastic Documentary

Check out this trailer for a documentary that reveals the history and worldwide scope of plastics pollution, investigates its toxicity and explores solutions...

Oliver Johnson, my creative collaborator and band mate, was Musical Supervisor/Composer/Mastermind behind the music for this film, and if you get a chance to see it, listen out for 2 songs we co-wrote, "Put Your Foot Down" and "Reverence & Ridicule"!
