Birdskulls, Broadbay, Beat Easton, Cold Holding

I saw Birdskulls playing at Tramlines back in 2014 upstairs in The Great Gastby and thought they were great.   A fuzzy low-fi grungy band; I immediately downloaded a bunch of their tracks from their Soundcloud account and added them to my playlists, so I was pretty happy to see them line up another gig […]

Thomas and the Empty Orchestra

Bit of a newer set than one from the backlog. Thought I’d start trying to alternate newer things as well as the older sets so I still feel like it’s worth me taking my camera out. Popped out to see Thomas and the Empty Orchestra at The Frog and Parrot which was nice. The lighting […]

The Silence at Tramlines 2015

I didn’t take my camera for Tramlines 2015 as I’d bought tickets and “the rules” would have prevented me taking it into any of the of the official venues. However, I was in Maida Vale with some friends and got an itchy shutter finger and stole Steve’s Canon EOS 70D for a couple of shots. […]

Cosmic Doge, Exit Strategy One

Exit Strategy One split up a while ago, and Tom’s new band, Kaiju Hunters, were playing a gig down at The Rocking Chair so I thought I’d pop down to see them. Something strange happened though, which resulted in the event promoter JP, who was the other half of Exit Strategy One to pick up the […]

Stop Drop Robot, Of Allies, Servers, Unicorn Hunters

Finally! An update. Life has been very hectic recently and I pretty much put the camera down for about 6 months. Oh and Lightroom too, meaning that this set of photos was taken just over 12 months ago… Oh dear! It’s a bit of a mixed bag to be honest. Felt like I was struggling […]

Gilmore Trail, Awooga

First gig I’ve been to in the rather white looking Local Authority. I think this was billed as Awooga’s last gig of the year, and an album launch gig for the Gilmore Trail. I got a lot more shots of Awooga (some 300!) as there was enough room at the front of the stage for […]

Roaming Son, Black Thunder Revue, The Fargo Railroad Co, Blue Rooster

Way back in 2014 I wandered into a shop during Tramlines to see Blue Rooster rocking it out with some style and took some photos which ended up on this site.  Blue Rooster later on asked me if I’d take some shots of them at some time, which I agreed to.  Almost a year later, […]

Vasa, Firesuite, Esuna and Strangler Figs

I’ve just finished April 2015! I really need to keep at least less than a year behind. Breaking a year would be bad! Anyway, ended up at this gig as I do like Firesuite after stumbling into them at Tramsline 2014. A friend of mine suggested that Vasa were worth seeing as well. This is […]

Sofar Sounds Sheffield: Demons of Ruby Mae, Sarah de Warren, Ben Maggs

It had been a while since I went to a Sofar, but saw a call out on Twitter and answered.   I’ve got 7 other shows before this from about February this year to get through, but… what the hell 🙂 This time the venue was Vintedge again, but with less light!   Even with […]

Fly On Byrd, Fly On, Skyligers, Gus Van Spyk

I took this set so long ago (8 months ago…) that there isn’t that much I can remember about it! I really shouldn’t let myself get so behind in my photos! It means I miss out on lots of photo opportunities because of the back log. It was the first gig I’d been to upstairs […]
