Cardinal Releasing - The Rock Prophet

An unlikely figure responsible for the birth of Rock N Roll, music superstars such as James Brown, Jimi Hendrix idolized him, and Jimmy Page said he would have never picked up a guitar if he hadn't heard him on the radio.

The Native American musician catapulted into the spotlight with his iconic song, Rumble. Born into poverty, he faced adversity his whole life. He was pursued by the Ku Klux Klan, mis-represented by record companies, he even lost a lung during the Korean War and was told he could never sing again.

Featuring an A-lister cast of rock legends such as Pete Townsend, Jimmy Page and Dan Auerbach, Director, and media-industry veteran Jon Brewer (BB King The Life of Riley, Nat King Cole: Afraid of the Dark) and iconic Music Doc Producers, Cardinal Releasing tell the story of The Rock Prophet: Link Wray for the first time on screen.

Why is it that most people don't know about this foundational figure in the history of rock music? The Rock Prophet looks at his life and asks why.
