Description

Toubon et son meilleur ami Dany remarquent que les filles adorent les musiciens, même s'ils sont un peu crétins. Ils décident donc de former un groupe et Toubon se découvre une passion pour la musique. Avec un son à faire vomir le chat, le groupe prend son envol. Un concours viendra cependant semer la zizanie dans le groupe. Le batteur Crado est plus intéressé à soigner son image qu'à faire de la musique et l'intérêt de Dany pour les filles les perdra tous.

Ace and his best friend Denny notice that girls like musicians, no matter how dorky the dudes might be. So they start a band, and Ace discovers that he loves playing music more than anything he's done in his life. Fueled by Denny's tweets and a sound guaranteed to make cats barf, the band takes flight until a contest draws them into conflict. Their drummer, Pig, cares more about hygiene than music, and Denny's drive to impress the girls leads them all astray.
