Item Description

Two (2) tickets to closing night of the DC Independent Film Festival, including a catered reception by Austin Grill, open bar, and private concert with Dave Wilcox, along with the film, "Eye of the Hurricane".

In 1993, American Folk Singer-Songwriter David Wilcox had a chart topping hit with his, song "Eye of the Hurricane". It wasn’t pushed by the record companies, but it made its way to the hearts of people all across America. There was something about his lyrics and storytelling that resonated with a huge audience.

Twenty years later, he’s still dedicated to crafting his songs and stories in ways that have often been described as "moving listeners through the most turbulent times of their live". When filmmaker Steven Flynn first started listening to David’s music, this statement was certainly true for him. Later in his career when he made a documentary film about David, he had no idea that he would become a character in his own film. "Eye Of The Hurricane" is a very subtle story about the healing power of music and the human spirit with a good dose of humor and tragedy.
