Nash the Slash documentary needs your help!

Big news Nash fans and we need your help!!!

Last week we launched our crowdfunding campaign through Indiegogo for the upcoming Nash the Slash documentary – And You Thought You Were Normal.

Link to the campaign:
igg.me/at/youwerenormal

Since 2016 we have conducted 50+ interviews with his friends, collaborators, and fans. We have unearthed fantastic archival footage and rare images just for you! We are ready to head into post-production, but we need your help to bring this project to completion.

Some of the rare collectible perks we have up for grabs on our Indiegogo campaign were Nash’s own personal possessions, including two of his “customized” violins. We have an exclusive and rare vinyl release of Nash’s first ever performance from 1975! AND, we even have new Nash merch available such a super cool Nash the Slash trucker hat in gasmask logo or NTS embroidered design.

Like, follow, and share our Facebook page at And You Thought You Were Normal: A Documentary Film About Nash The Slash to keep up to date with the campaign and to help us spread the word. Your participation will help us reach our fundraising goal and bring Nash back–for his fans, and for a whole new generation of music lovers!

Please help us complete this film – every donation is incredibly appreciated! Even a small contribution will get you a great reward. Click here to donate!

Thank you for you support!

Nash the Slash documentary in the works

I’ve teamed up with Side Three Media (a Canadian production company) to produce the official, feature-length, documentary film about Nash – And You Thought You Were Normal. It will feature a lot of Nash’s own footage and memorabilia, as well as interviews with dozens of his family, friends and colleagues. Side Three have interviewed everyone from Nash’s brother to his FM bandmates, to Gary Numan. It’s going to be an incredible film!

Here are a few teaser trailers:
