"The story of Richie Bloom, the only white kid on the block, as he forms an R&B band with his best friend, Kevin. WIth the help of their mentor, aging sax legend Percy, they pull together a funky super-group, stealing practice time at night in the local funeral home. Despite few resources and heavy losses, this resilient group of dedicated musicians, armed only with wit, sleight of hand and outrageous Chicago bravado, must come together to make their smash debut"--Container.
