The Marías attempts a set amidst lightning storms in Nashville

As a music fan, I have sometimes waited years to see certain bands in my city. I have known music fans who’ve waited almost a lifetime to see their favorite bands. I have even traveled to different countries to see bands on my must-see list and I’ve always had an amazing experience doing so. I […]

The Weeknd thrills Nashville with theatrics, pyro, & beyond

This past week in Nashville was my first chance shooting at an NFL stadium. Last year, I photographed Green Day at GEODIS Park in Nashville, but that stadium only has a capacity of around 25,000.

Billy Idol rocks Nashville with rebel yells & raw energy

Billy. Fucking. Idol. There is just something about him. The dramatic and glam rock stars of the 80s were the soundtrack of my childhood and shaped the artist I would eventually become. Billy Idol, in particular, had a massive impact on my life. His music, his presence, his attitude. It all lit a fire in […]

Babe Haven blows the doors off Nashville’s Blue Room

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 […]
