Styx Icon Tommy Shaw Helps Ring In The Holiday Season
HDNET MOVIES gets loud this December, with seven days of music-themed films paired with critically acclaimed documentaries in the “Not So Silent Nights” marathon, presented by STYX legend Tommy Shaw from Monday, Dec. 5 through Sunday, Dec. 11 starting at 7pE each evening. The weeklong event features films highlighting a breadth of music genres from early and classic rock to reggae and modern alternative, including groundbreaking artists such as Elvis Presley, Janis Joplin, Bob Marley, Roger Waters, Dave Navarro, and The Who.
“I’m excited to announce that I’ll be hosting HDNET MOVIES’ ‘Not So Silent Nights,” said Shaw. “Each night, for seven nights in a row, we will pair a Rock themed feature film with a Rock-umentary. Grab your favorite concert T-shirts and suit up for the shows!”
“Tommy Shaw is one of the most prolific and influential figures in rock,” said HDNET MOVIES General Manager Rachael Weaver. “He has a great deal of knowledge and respect for rock, and it was truly an honor to be able to work with him and learn from his unparalleled experiences in the industry as he presents this incredible lineup. There’s something here for everyone to enjoy, and I’m confident our viewers are going to love it.”
