New wave icons The Go-Go’s have announced a string of US shows to accompany a new documentary about the band. Simply titled The Go-Go’s and first premiered at the Sundance Festival, acclaimed director Alison Ellwood’s film is a no-holds-barred depiction of the quintet complete with all the highs and lows, utilising a vast array of archive photos and videos. Jane Wiedlin said: “I was really happy that Alison focused a lot on the fun we had, the camaraderie, the love and the milestones and not just the salacious stuff.”
