Chicago-based acoustic duo Actor Slash Model has been wooing audiences with their folksy tunes and clever song titles for years, but the band's newest project, "Riot Acts," is shedding much-needed light on trans and gender variant musicians in the indie music scene.
On Saturday, the Chicago International Music and Movies Festival screened "Riot Acts: Flaunting Gender Deviance in Music Performance," a feature length documentary directed and produced by Madsen Minax and Simon Strikeback of Actor Slash Model. This self-described "transfabulous rockumentary" highlights transgender and gender variant musicians from across the U.S. and Canada.
