Electric Apricot

A film by Les Claypool.

"In the Spring of 2005, a graduate filmmaker from UCLA set forth to make a documentary reflecting an element of contemporary music culture that had yet to be fully examined. The notion was to capture something raw and original. He searched for something unpretentious and genuine, yearning to make a film that would stand out from other music documentaries and potentially redefine the genre. Who he found was the band Electric Apricot, and what he achieved is enlightenment. Unexpectedly, while searching for enlightenment the duality of existence was unveiled.

Electric Apricot is a spoof of jam bands centered around the band, Electric Apricot, in the style of "This Is Spinal Tap". The members of the band go by the assumed names, Steve Hampton Trouzdale on bass and vocals, Steve "Gordo" Gordon on guitar and vocals, Herschal Tambor Brillstien on keyboards and vocals, and Lapland "Lapdog" Miclovik on drums and vocals. The film includes appearances by: Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), Mike Gordon (Phish), Seth Green (Austin Powers), Matt Stone (South Park), Dian Bachar (Orgazmo), Sam Macarrone (Tv:The Movie), Gabby LaLa, Arj Barker (As the Cube) and much more! Hey, are you going to Burning Man?"
