THE KINGS OF ROCK & ROLL, is a black supergroup from Cleveland, Ohio circa 1950. The Kings consists of four band members. Boomer Curtis, the short tempered drummer. Fox Washington, the talented wingman on guitar who has a sweet tooth for teenage girls. Duke Williams, the demure songwriter and pianist whose sexual identity is ambiguous. The lead singer is the ultimate showman, Dynamite Harris. Saying Dynamite has a drug problem is an understatement. The Kings are a dysfunctional group both in their personal lives and collectively as a group. Their personalities clash quite often but the Kings also make beautiful music together. The rock music they make is ahead of its time when black music is defined and dominated by rhythm and blues. Macio Sundance is their manager. Macio knows The Kings super talent is rare. Macio tries to manage the group and their egos so he can guide them and ride the wave to money, fame, and superstardom. The Kings music isn't critically acclaimed, accepted or receipted in the US but their sound has gained momentum and is a hit in the UK. The Kings travel to the UK to reap the benefits of their new found fame with sex, drugs, and rock & roll. The British Invasion will soon make it back across the Atlantic. However, money and fame only magnifies The Kings' dysfunction. The Kings of Rock & Roll are ahead of their time. Will they make it while they are in their prime?
