A Jewish rock star from the 80s tries to make a comeback during the age of social media.

There isn’t a single Jew in the USA who doesn’t know the name Lenny Solomon - the Jewish rock star from the 80s. Lenny has published 39 albums, performing in all 50 states (!) and for years has gone on tours world wide. Today, Lenny is 63 years old. Although Lenny’s glory days are over, he continues to write new music and perform via live-stream to a devoted group of fans in New Jersey. Slowly but surely, he rediscovers his purpose in the Jewish music industry.
