MATT SORUM, PERRY FARRELL Perform At 'The Heart Is A Drum Machine' Premiere; Video Available - Apr. 27, 2009

VELVET REVOLVER/ex-GUNS N' ROSES drummer Matt Sorum and JANE'S ADDICTION frontman Perry Farrell are among the musicians who performed at the Los Angeles premiere of "The Heart Is A Drum Machine", the eagerly awaited documentary film that explores the complex and critical relationship between humanity and music. The event was held this past Saturday, April 25 at Nike's Ricardo Montalb?n Theater in the heart of Hollywood. Sponsored by L.A. Weekly and Nike, proceeds will benefit the Charles Mingus Youth Arts Center in Watts, a facility of the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.

Watch fan-filmed video footage from the event below.

Directed by Christopher Pomerenke and produced by Ryan Page, Joe Mundo, and Hans Fjellestad, "The Heart Is A Drum Machine" explores music's role in shaping human history, the profound connection people have had to music throughout human history, how it has shaped our experiences, and its involvement in our daily lives. Tackling the topic is a who's who of musicians, including George Clinton, TOOL's Maynard James Keenan, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS' John Frusciante, and JIMMY EAT WORLDS's Jim Adkins. Music historians and writers such as MTV's Kurt Loder and KCRW's Nic Harcourt were also interviewed, in addition to Carl Sagan's widow and collaborator Ann Druyan, who discusses the Voyager Golden Record. THE FLAMING LIPS' Steven Drozd created an original score for the film and covered ELTON JOHN's "Rocket Man" with vocals by Maynard James Keenan.
