Following the triumphant launch of "The Last Waltz," Robbie Robertson redirected his ambitions toward carving a prominent niche in Hollywood. With a fervent desire to attain recognition as a distinguished producer and a rising star in the film industry, he set his sights on a captivating script known as "Carny." This enthralling tale delved into the dark and enigmatic world of travelling carnivals, promising numerous hurdles for the aspiring filmmaker – drug-induced debauchery, the inherent challenges of a novice filmmaker, and the lurking spectres of vanity. Undeterred by the daunting odds, Robertson embraced this opportunity as his pivotal moment to make an enduring mark on the cinematic landscape.

If you're in Toronto or want to come up for a special evening, Chest Fever is doing a Last Waltz Celebration at the legendary Massey Hall on November 18, 2023. Buy tickets here.

The Band: A History is produced, written and hosted by Tyrell William Lisson and post-production sound and editing by Michael Koehler.
