Sometime in the 1960s, in sunny Sacramento, two Filipina-American sisters got together with other teenage girls to play music. Little did they know their garage band would evolve into the legendary rock group Fanny, the first all-women band to issue an LP with a major record label (Warner/Reprise, 1970).

Despite releasing five critically acclaimed albums over five years, touring with famed bands from Slade to Chicago, and amassing a dedicated fan base of music legends, including David Bowie, Fanny’s groundbreaking impact on music was written out of history… until bandmates reunite 50 years later with a new rock record deal.

With incredible archival footage of the band’s rocking past intercut with its next chapter releasing a new LP today, the film includes interviews with a large cadre of music icons, including Def Leppard’s Joe Elliott, Bonnie Raitt, The Go-Go’s Kathy Valentine, Todd Rundgren, The Runaways’ Cherie Currie, The B52’s Kate Pierson, and more.

Fighting early barriers of race, gender, and sexuality in the music industry, and now ageism, the incredible women of Fanny are ready to claim their hallowed place in the halls of rock & roll fame.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is launching the Rock & Roll Movie Club – a new spin on our film series that blends iconic music films with great drinks, casual bites, and real conversation. Across six curated screenings, guests are invited to gather early for a pre-movie reception, grab a drink and popcorn, connect with fellow music lovers, and settle in for films that celebrate the artists, scenes, and stories that shaped rock & roll. Hosted by Rock Hall staff, each night offers a slightly different experience – whether that’s guided discussion, artifact spotlights, or fun giveaways.
