CHAOS
A decade long, all encompassing musical rite of passage shattered into a carnage of addiction, betrayal and death.
Road warrior brothers who’d shared it all, left everything behind -as they became perfect strangers.
Chaos is the story of Ian ‘Dosser’ Dawkins journey to musical rebirth.
Now in his 40’s, Dosser is ten years into recovery for alcoholism, back in a day job and still grieving for his Brother, Tony (the victim of an on-tour overdose).
When his defunct band, The Nuclear Aces are offered a series of lucrative festival shows, it could be the answer to Dosser’s financial woes.
But can he risk his sobriety by returning to a world of egos and snide? And that’s just his band mates.
Caught between Rock and a hard place.
Chaos is for Musicians what Californicationwas for Authors and Sons of Anarchy was for Bike Gangs. Part Joy Division biopic, Control, part Motley Crue’sThe Dirt, it’s a warts n’ all look behind the workings of a Rock & Roll band -but with substance, not just substances.
