Celebrity Conveyor Belt

Story Behind The Song

I composed this piece as part of the soundtrack for a dance-theater fusion work that was a spoof on the Andy Warhol story.

Song Description

This song draws musical inspiration from 1960s blues-rock and early Velvet Underground music. The Andy Warhol era represents for me the beginning of modern American celebrity.
