WANTON: Abominable soul, Steve and The Sea, Unicorn Hunters, and May The Night Bless You With Heavenly Dreams

Dave Chitty, who I photo’d a long time ago as a drummer for Little Mono asked me to come and take some photos for the new event he was putting on at the Plug: Wanton! Being as I’d caught up with my back log (not for long though!) I accepted and went along to take […]

Paul Venkman: Under Control single cover

JP, who has put on many of the events I’ve photographed at over the last few years asked me to take some portrait photos for him to use on his new CD Release cover: “Paul Venkman, Under Control”. The brief was to get a portrait photo of him which would then be manipulated by a […]

‘Patron Saint’ single release party at The Rocking Chair

Thomas had another launch party! This time with Harrison Rimmer, LIO and Silence Dogood. This is the first set of photos I’ve done since I cleared the massive backlog I had, so it’s great to finally get behind the camera again. Like with the previous Thomas and the Empty Orchestra gig, because there wasn’t a […]

Little Mono, Spitfire, Biophony

Little Mono were the first band to reach out to me for some photos back in 2014 and I really enjoyed their tunes, so when I saw they’d released an album, Sailing Songs, which eventually turned out to be one of my most played albums of 2016, I jumped at the chance to come and […]

Exit Strategy One, Massa Confusa, Casual Threats

The last time I took photos of Exit Strategy One, it was actually supposed to be Kaiju Hunters, but they sprung back to life somehow. This, I think, was their first proper gig since reforming, and Tom asked me to come down and take some photos. This turned into something of a monster set with […]

‘A More Equal Punishment’ Single Launch Party at Moon Unit’s Tea Emporium

Jumping ahead to do a small set before it gets too old! I headed down to Tom’s launch party for his new Thomas and the Empty Orchestra single. I wasn’t really up for taking photos, but Liz convinced me to come and just to take a few for each band. Really glad I did because […]

Dyonisis, Unkillable Clerics in aid of Ben’s Centre

The first Dyonisis gig for a while and the last one I’ll take photos of with Lou singing! I caught them a few weeks ago in Sheffield on her penultimate gig but didn’t take my camera for wanting just to watch them. This gig though back in February was a bit of a pain for […]
