The story of The Strokes is a long and storied one.

Becoming friends in the early 90s, the band formed in 1998 and begun writing songs, practicing, and performing at small gigs across New York City.

Having written for over a year and practiced constantly for over a year, they were eventually spotted at a gig by a record producer - the rest, as they say, is history...

When It Started: The Story of The Strokes tells the journey of the band from before their formation, to the present day - focussing mainly on the release of their incredible debut album Is This It.
