Synopsis: Presented by Jamie Foxx, “Thunder Soul” follows the extraordinary alumni from Houston’s storied Kashmere High School Stage Band, who return home after 35 years to play a tribute concert for the 92-year-old “Prof,” their beloved band leader who broke the color barrier and transformed the school’s struggling jazz band into a world-class funk powerhouse in the early 1970s.<\/p>\n

Foxx, a Texas-native himself and an outspoken advocate of music education in schools, heard about the film after its South by Southwest premiere, and sought it out immediately. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to share Thunder Soul with the world so that everyone can enjoy this one of a kind experience,\u201d said Foxx. \u201cIt\u2019s such an entertaining and inspirational story that touches your soul and awakens the human spirit in the way that only love and the power of music can.\u201d<\/p>\n
