It was a wet Sunday night in Nashville and I was beyond excited as I packed up my camera bag and headed to The Basement East. It had been a long time since I’d shot a show at this venue, but with a lineup featuring HEALTH and Author & Punisher, I knew I had to […]
Born out of the vibrant Boone, North Carolina music scene, Babe Haven has quickly established themselves as one of the most compelling new forces in modern metal. Yet, at their core, the band’s inception was refreshingly simple — there was a desire to “just play”. Guitarist Naomi Poesel recalled during our sit-down conversation that she […]
This past Thursday night at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee, I had the privilege of doing something I had never done before in the history of me shooting concerts. That was to shoot an artist for a second time after covering them many years ago as a local artist. I am talking about a […]
On a Monday night in Nashville, I found myself heading to one of the most historic and revered music venues in the city — the legendary Ryman Auditorium. Known for its rich history and unparalleled acoustics, the Ryman has played host to some of the greatest musicians of all time. On this particular evening, I […]
This past Monday, Nashville’s premier music venue, the Brooklyn Bowl, hosted an amazing night of darkwave and synth-driven goth rock. The dreary, rain-soaked evening set the perfect atmosphere for an unforgettable performance by Belarus-based darkwave band Molchat Doma, supported by the high-energy Los Angeles post-punk outfit Sextile. With an eager crowd filling the venue from […]
Rising soul-pop artist Red Rosamond is making waves with her debut album WIP and its lead single, “Tell Me the Truth”, released on October 18th. Red beautifully blends a timeless soul sound reminiscent of Aretha Franklin and Dinah Washington with a modern pop edge, capturing the attention of music lovers and critics alike. Her powerful […]
It was another night of what I like to call “musical mystery theater” here in Nashville, Tennessee. This time, I headed over to Brooklyn Bowl to catch rising indie rock band joan, who just so happened to be opening for MisterWives. I call it a mystery because, before attending, I hadn’t really listened to any […]
Chappell Roan is a phenomenon — or more fittingly, a Feminominon — who has captured many hearts and headlines in 2024. When I got the chance to photograph and review her Nashville show, I jumped at the opportunity! As an artist myself, watching Chappell’s meteoric rise has been nothing short of inspiring. After some recent […]
As a dedicated music fan, I firmly believe that the UK is home to some of the greatest music in the world. Year after year, I discover bands and artists that seem to be pushing boundaries in ways that set them apart globally. New acts like Palace, The Mysterines, Idles, Fontaines DC, and Soft Play […]
Mondays are typically not known for being the happiest day of the week. Most people associate them with gloom and fatigue, but this past Monday at Marathon Music Works in Nashville, UK punk legends Idles gave the crowd a reason to forget their Monday blues. This marked my third time seeing the band and, for […]
My first memory of hearing Green Day dates back to my teenage years during an after-school track practice: I distinctly remember the guitar riff from “Brain Stew” playing and from that moment, I was hooked. Back then, the radio would play the song at least five times a day, always followed by “Jaded”, which — […]
Nearly 15 years have passed since I last attended a concert by Five Finger Death Punch or Marilyn Manson. I distinctly remember my first time seeing Five Finger Death Punch; lead singer Ivan Moody was clearly grappling with substance abuse issues, which heavily impacted the band’s performance. At the time, every metal magazine seemed to […]
Approximately 10 years ago, while living in central New York, I discovered a band called Lake Street Dive through friends who typically attended jam band shows. These friends were the type who would have followed the Grateful Dead if they had the time. They enthusiastically recommended that I check out Lake Street Dive and I […]
It was another beautiful night for music in Nashville, Tennessee. The Brooklyn Bowl was packed to capacity with fans eagerly awaiting the performance of Future Islands. This was a show I had been anticipating for a very long time. Over the past decade, Future Islands has been one of my go-to bands for romantic moments. […]
The year was 2016 and I was sipping an espresso in a small Italian cafe. There wasn’t anything particularly special about this establishment: the food was basic and unassuming, the coffee was okay. Suddenly, over the mediocre sound system came a song that immediately made me panic to find the shazam button on my iPhone. […]
