Resilience and Rock: The Peter Frampton Story

Peter Frampton was a rock star sensation in 1976 with his hit concert album Frampton Comes Alive! dominating the charts. Despite his initial success, his career took a downturn, leading him to join David Bowie's backing band. However, in the 1990s, he made a comeback as a popular live performer, overcoming challenges like the muscle-wasting disease Inclusion Body Myositis. The documentary Frampton, directed by Rob Author, chronicles his remarkable journey and will premiere at the Tribeca Festival on June 4. The trailer for the film is exclusively available on Rolling Stone, featuring insights from Cameron Crowe and interviews with various music icons and Frampton himself.

Despite his hiatus from touring since November 2025, Frampton remains an influential figure in the music industry and will be present at the Tribeca Festival for the documentary premiere. Tickets for the screening can be obtained through the festival's website.
