Serving as a prelude to Sarah Shook & The Disarmers’ performance at BeMo’s on Friday, Aug. 24, the HHM team is hosting a special screening of the Gorman Bechard-directed documentary on the band, “What it Takes: film en douze tableux”, on Thursday, Aug. 23! The film is screening at the State Theatre, 913 Washington Ave., at 7 p.m. Tickets are $5 at the door and we’ll have some surprises in store.

Come see the doc and whet your sonic appetites by learning about the band’s history, writing, and recording processes, and then check them out live the following night!
