WATCH THE TRAILER FOR 500 DAYS OF SILENCE

Featuring insightful commentary from Sammy Hagar (Van Halen, The Circle), Rick Springfield, Michael Anthony (Van Halen, The Circle),  Corey Taylor (Slipknot, Stone Sour), Kevin Cronin (REO Speedwagon), Jim Adkins (Jimmy Eat World), Robin Wilson (Gin Blossoms) and more, 500 Days of Silence explores the shared struggles of musicians as they navigate 500 days of the unnerving unknown. The film delves into how these artists navigated the uncertainty and fear of losing their livelihoods and the one thing they know best: performing for an audience.

Director Jeremy Simmons explains, “When the music stopped I wanted to tell the story of our shuttered local music scene in Tempe. What are hometown touring bands like The Gin Blossoms, Jimmy Eat World, Refreshments, and The Black Moods doing now that touring was canceled and we were all stuck home? Did they get day jobs? I was fortunate enough to be taken on a wild journey with The Black Moods and a road trip to the Ozarks where the band was using their sudden ‘time off’ to produce a new record with legendary producer Eddie Kramer… over Zoom! As other artists signed on to the project, I had no idea what I was in for and the audience gets to experience that too.”

500 Days of Silence takes viewers on a journey through the early days of The Black Moods, capturing their rise through relentless touring and chart success with four Top 30 singles. As their career reached new heights, the band faced the unprecedented challenge of a sudden and indefinite halt to live music in 2020. The documentary showcases the perseverance, creativity, and inspiration that emerged from the challenges faced by musicians during this unprecedented time.

About The Black Moods

The Black Moods — comprised of vocalist/guitarist Josh Kennedy, drummer Chico Diaz, and bassist Jordan Hoffman — formed in the Arizona desert and have built a national audience thanks to their chart-topping releases and relentless touring schedule.

Their 2020 album Sunshine earned the band four Top 30 singles including their first-ever Top 20 charting hit with title track, “Sunshine,” which peaked at #16 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart. The trio released their fourth album, Into The Night, in 2022, and in 2023 they teamed up with The Doors’ guitarist Robby Krieger to record an electrifying cover of The Doors’ 1970’s hit “Roadhouse Blues” with guest vocals from rock singer-songwriter Diamante.

To date, The Black Moods have garnered over 12 million streams and brought their electric performances across North America sharing stages with ZZ TOP, Shinedown, 311, Godsmack, Rick Springfield, Collective Soul, Jane’s Addiction, and Gin Blossoms among others.

The Tempe-based band are the modern-day torchbearers of ageless rock & roll, turning the genre’s timeless ingredients of electric guitar, anthemic hooks, and percussive stomps into a sound that’s both contemporary and climactic.
