Director: Joe Salinas Run Time: 90 min. Format: DCP Rating: NR Release Year: 2026
You Can Color Outside the Lines chronicles the rise and lasting impact of the Big Boys, the wildly original Austin band who fused punk, funk, skateboarding, performance art, humor, and radical self-expression into something entirely their own. Long before genre-blending became fashionable, the Big Boys were creating a world where creativity mattered more than rules.
Created by filmmakers Joe Salinas & Andrew Leeper and narrated by Damian Abraham of Fucked Up and the podcast Turned Out a Punk, the documentary features appearances and interviews with a lineup of punk, skateboarding and creative legends including Ian MacKaye, Steve Albini, Jeff Ament, Tony Alva, Keith Morris, J Mascis, Fred Armisen, Mike Watt, John Doe, Exene Cervenka, David Yow, Glenn E. Friedman and many more.
At its heart, You Can Color Outside the Lines isn’t just a music documentary. It is a celebration of individuality, DIY culture, skateboarding, friendship, art and the power of creating your own path.
