ART DEALERS / Official Film Trailer

Low Cut Connie Releases Official Trailer for  ART DEALERS Film   Screening at the Philadelphia Film Festival Tonight   Critically Acclaimed New Album ART DEALERS  Out Now “Experiencing Weiner in his element, whether on the new record ART DEALERS, its accompanying film, or live, is a gift of melody, messages, and community.” - No Depression   “ART DEALERS hits the heart, head, and groin with equal force.” - AllMusic   “ART DEALERS may be the band’s masterpiece” - Nashville Scene   “Weiner has proven himself to be more than just a stellar songwriter but also one of the most entertaining live acts currently wheeling a piano across the country. And ART DEALERS may just be his best album yet." - Glide Magazine   “Low Cut Connie can renew your faith in rock” - Boston Herald   October the South Philadelphia-based rock ‘n’ roll artist Low Cut Connie released the official trailer for his new film ART DEALERS, a feature length companion to his critically-acclaimed album ART DEALERS that was released last month via Contender Records. Following its official premiere at the Richmond International Film Festival where it took home their 2023 Artistic Vision Award, the film will screen tonight at the Philadelphia Film Festival, as well as Minneapolis’ Sound Unseen Festival on November 10.    Rolling Stone spoke with Adam Weiner about the film, proclaiming “As a music doc, Art Dealers succeeds on the strength of the musicians it profiles: not just the group’s flamboyant frontman, but the ragtag bunch of players who join him as he schleps his piano around the country. As a concert film, it expertly summons the sweaty revival that is a Low Cut Connie gig by culling the best from three shows at New York’s Sony Hall and jazz outpost the Blue Note.”   Watch the official trailer for “ART DEALERS” via YouTube Right Here   The first public screening of the ART DEALERS film will take place on Thursday, December 21 at Asbury Lanes in Asbury Park, NJ and will be accompanied by a solo piano performance by Low Cut Connie. A full band performance with special guests will follow on Friday, December 22. Tickets are on sale now.    In the tradition of art-world documentaries like Stop Making Sense, Paris is Burning, Crumb and American Movie, ART DEALERS follows eccentric rock n roll artist Adam Weiner aka Low Cut Connie and his band and crew as they attempt to mount a concert production of their new album ART DEALERS album during a 3 night run at Sony Hall and The Blue Note in Covid-era New York City. The stunning high-intensity performances are laid against a backdrop of 15 years of footage that shows an artist plagued by bad luck, but who attacks each performance with humor and stagecraft. Low Cut Connie’s unglamorous day-to-day circumstances are shown in contrast to the undeniable magic of the stage show. The film entertains and inspires while also making a broader statement about the difficult landscape of art and entertainment in modern America.    Last month, Low Cut Connie released their eighth album ART DEALERS to critical acclaim, with the lead single “ARE YOU GONNA RUN?” marking his debut on Billboard’s AAA Radio Chart. The album was praised by Consequence of Sound, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, NPR’s World Cafe, NPR Music, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Rolling Stone, Sound Opinions and many more.   Following their 20+ date album release tour earlier this fall, the band will ring in the new year with two shows at Ardmore Music Hall in Pennsylvania.
