ABOUT THE FILM

In the comical & capricious, black-and-white SURROGATE VALENTINE directed by Dave Boyle (WHITE ON RICE), TV star Danny Turner (Chadd Stoops) tags along with a rising San Francisco musician (Goh Nakamura, as himself) to research a role. Becoming immersed in Goh’s life and love, Danny learns where rock-star fantasy meets harsh indie-musician reality.

About Goh Nakamura

Goh Nakamura is a San Francisco Bay Area based musician who writes ditties about parking tickets, impossible crushes and faraway dreamlands. With one foot in the traditional troubadour world and another in the digital age, he performs at venues small, large, and virtual, to an enthusiastic and ever growing audience. A fortuitous 2007 feature on YouTube’s front page brought his music videos over a million views and earned him a huge new fanbase from all over the world.

Goh’s talents have also found a home in the film industry. Goh’s vocals and guitar work are featured prominently on the scores to Ridley Scott films A Good Year and, most recently, American Gangster. His song “Daylight Savings” is included on the soundtrack to the Robert Benton film Feast of Love, starring Morgan Freeman and Greg Kinnear.

Following a March 2008 re-issue of his first album Daylight Savings, Goh released his new album, Ulysses, in August 2008.
