Rising From the Riverbed is a lively chronicle of the orgins of the widespread southern jamband scene as seen through the smoky eyes of one of its seminal groups, Beanland. The band's "rise" is richly illustrated with interviews and archival video footage spanning nearly 20 years, from back-porch Mississippi hippie-cover-band to their hard-earned arrival as a genuine musical force across the south.

A couple of Beanland’s members moved on to Widespread Panic. JoJo Hermann left Beanland in 1992 to add his keyboard prowess to the Athens, Georgia quintet while guitarist George McConnell was called upon in 2002 to handle the heavy task of filling the gap left by the passing of original Panic guitarist Michael Houser.

The film contains blistering concert footage from the 2004 Beanland reunion in Oxford, MS, guest appearances by Jim Dickinson, Luther and Cody Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars), Cedric Burnside (Burnside Blues Family), Cary Hudson (Blue Mountain), Paul "Crumpy" Edwards (White Buffalo, Bloodkin, Barbara Cue), Charlie Pruet (Allgood), Jeff Mosier (Aquarium Rescue Unit, Blueground Undergrass) and more southern music stalwarts, as well as stars Beanland: JoJo Hermann, George McConnell, Bill McCrory, Rob Laird, Ron Lewis, Lance Lawrence, JK Terrell, Harry Peel, and Barry Hannah.

2 disc set includes feature plus a 12-track CD by various southern artists and bonus footage of George and Bill acoustic, JoJo unplugged, and outtakes.

Comes with a special drink coozie while supplies last.
