RIVER CITY DRUMBEAT is a powerful story of music, love, and legacies set in the American South. Edward "Nardie" White devoted his life to leading the African-American drum corps he co-founded with Zambia Nkrumah in Louisville, Kentucky three decades ago. River City Drumbeat follows this creative community making their way in a world where systemic forces raise obstacles to fulfilling their dreams.

River City Drumbeat had its World Premiere at DOC NYC Film Festival, and is an Official Selection of the 2020 Miami Film Festival, SXSW EDU Festival, and SFFILM San Francisco International Film Festival.
