    This Rock Band Was Imprisoned For a Decade

    The Shaggs were one of the strangest and most haunting bands to emerge from the 1960s. Three teenage sisters from Fremont, New Hampshire — Dorothy “Dot,” Betty, and Helen Wiggin — were forced into the spotlight by their controlling father, Austin Wiggin Jr., who believed it was their destiny to become famous musicians. With no real training, no freedom, and very little contact with the outside world, the girls were kept isolated and pressured to play, record, and perform under his strict control.If you’re interested in 1960s rock history, cult bands, outsider music, strange records, or stories of control and survival, this is a story you won’t want to miss.--Written, shot, and edited by Andrew PriceIntro sequence by Andrew PriceOriginal animation by Brandon Nebitt / https://www.instagram.com/brandonnebittOriginal music by D.
