A colorful parable of 1970’s Nashville, Pre-Madonna* is the true story of George and the Arizona Star, the unlikeliest duo ever to record in America’s Music City.
Financed by a bad check, these outrageous women turned Nashville on it’s ear, then double pierced it, making a sequin-suited town look positively buttoned down.
They passed the hat, paving the way for Madonna to make a million dollar splash years later.
Music notables Kris Kristofferson, Tracy Nelson, Marshall Chapman, Bucky Wilkin, Mac Gayden and Chris Gantry are among those who recollect a Nashville where the creative climate produced some of the most enduring and heartfelt music in America.
A climate that proved briefly magnetic for counterculture characters like Star and George.

Inspired by the Guy Clark song “Arizona Star”, Pre-Madonna* is the latest documentary from Demetria Kalodimos and genuine human productions, a company dedicated to telling true stories about real people.
Composer/guitarist Verlon Thompson provides the musical score and the legendary Guy Clark narrates.
Previous genuine human releases include Friends Seen and Unseen, and Injurious George.
So make way for George and the Arizona Star to join Prophet Omega and the footstomper in Nashville’s underground honor roll.
