Sasquatch Festival 2010. Monday:

The final day of Sasquatch was a great way to close it out. Whether you were sad, alone, and broke at the end of it like the kid pictured above or just enjoying the simple things like rolling down a big grass hill (Pictured below) It was the end of an amazing weekend. Monday's musical highlights were my local favoritess Past Lives as well as the soul brother Mayer Hawthorne. Seattle's Rock Orchestra performed one of my all-time favorite albums (Arcade Fire-Funeral) and had the crowd singing allong and watching in awe. Lastly, how could i forget the lovely Zooey Dechanell singing as half of She & Him. WEEN closed it out and although I'm not much of a fan they definitely had a fun light show and energetic performance.

Diamond District

I've been loving Washington DC based Diamond District's record for quite sometime now. Our own Larry Mizell Jr. has been bumpin it on Street Sounds constantly and for good reason. The young group made its first trip to the NW this weekend. I had the pleasure of shooting them @ KEXP during their in studio performance. I was flattered to hear they actually knew of my work because of ONEBELO's photos. They are definitly one of the freshest HipHop acts of recent times. Featuring Oddisee, YU, and XO. Oddisee has done production over the years for J Live, Talib Kweli, Freeway and Buckshot..to name a few. Definitly peep their album for quality all the way through (lyrics, production, live) More of my DD KEXP In studio photos HERE

Built to Spill!!

Dream come true yesterday shooting a band I've loved so much and whose music has been there for me over the years. Ended up being really great dudes as well. These two portraits were taken at a really high iso due to almost o light and time. but I really dig the rough, grainy feel though. reminds me of old built to spill tunes
