“I’m kind of overwhelmed at the success of this,” said D’Annunzio, who believes interest in the film is fueled in part by Detroit’s recent renaissance, which has produced a vibrancy he hadn’t seen in years, and in part by music lovers like him who remember or have heard of the Grande.

Reviews of LOUDER THAN LOVE-The Grande Ballroom Story

Deborah Stambler/Huffington Post “On the night you see the film, plan to go listen to some live music afterward. Make sure it’s loud. Hopefully it’ll be good. This is what Louder Than Love does best. It makes you want to get out, hear some music and be part of a gritty, happening, once in a lifetime scene.
