Voss has frequently collaborated with fellow UCLA alumnus Allison Anders. Working together over twenty-five years, the duo created a trilogy of rock films: Border Radio (1987), a portrait of the L.A. punk scene featuring John Doe (X) and Dave Alvin (The Blasters) and published by The Criterion Collection; the Sundance-premiered Sugar Town (1999), featuring John Taylor (Duran Duran) and Rosanna Arquette; and Strutter (2012), a Kickstarter-financed independent film.
