In August of 2004, Jason Crigler, a highly-regarded guitarist, suffered a brain hemorrhage during a gig in New York City. His pregnant wife rushed him to the hospital and got the bad news: doctors told Jason’s family that he might not live through the night, and if he did, little of the Jason they knew would be left.
But Jason and his family refused to accept the prognosis. Their tenacity and loving attention to Jason’s recovery is the subject of a new documentary, "Life. Support. Music." The film screens tonight at Red River Theaters in Concord. Jason Crigler and director Eric Daniel Metzgar will be there for a live Q & A following the film. Both join Word of Mouth to discuss how the film was made and the vital and demanding role that Jason's family played in his rehabilitation.
"Life. Support. Music." will be shown at Red River Theaters in Concord with a post-film Q&A on Thursday, August 7 at 7pm
