Trivia and Facts
- When deciding on the name of Dennis’ rock band, Sons of Rock, the production team did an online search to see if a band with that name existed. They found a Spanish rock/RnB/soul band called Sons of Rock led by Alba Cespedes.
- They contacted Alba to ask permission to use the band name in the movie, and they even added one of her songs in the movie’s soundtrack. You can hear the solo of Sons of Rock’s song ‘My Name is Lucille’ from their self-titled album on Dennis’ radio in his workshop.
