Bully + Rolling Blackouts + Tempura Nights @ Woolly Mammoth, 12.12.2015
The 8th day of Gigmas. It’s been 10 shows in 9 nights and it’s the final show for the year. It’s the end of a long week but one that was so enjoyable and brought back memories of the good old days photographing for Rave when there would be times of the year when doing […]
Thurston Moore Band @ Woolly Mammoth, 07.12.2015
It’s a Monday night and the third day of Gigmas (having had the Sunday night off, although I’m sure I could have found a show to go to, especially given all the Meredith sideshows in town at the moment). Gold Class are the single supporting act tonight and although I saw them on the Friday […]
BIGSOUND 2015, 10.09.2015 – Part 2
The final set of photos from BigSound 2015. Highlights were Jonny Telephone at Ric’s, one of the pleasant surprises of the whole thing, and, as yesterday, Major Leagues and Totally Mild. I’d never seen Waax before and they were fun to photograph as was Milwaukee Banks. I’m not a fan of the music but really […]
BIGSOUND 2015, 10.09.2015 – Part 1
As for Parts 1 and 2 from the first night of showcases, these photos are presented alphabetically rather than in chronological order from the night. Looking through them now it’s hard to remember anything or anyone that really stood out from this selection of bands. Maybe Darts, maybe Sui Zhen? That’s the trouble with cramming […]
BIGSOUND 2015, 09.09.2015 – Part 2
I’ve been too lazy to sort out the Bigsound photos by the time the acts played, instead you get them by alphabetical order, with Part 2 of the first night being the bands starting with a letter between L – W. Highlights from this set of photos from the first night of showcases are Major […]
BIGSOUND 2015, 09.09.2015 – Part 1
I went to BigSound and photographed a lot of bands across the two nights of live showcases. It’s one of those occasions where photo opportunities are maximised at the expense of spending time with any of the acts. Highlights from this first set of photos were the musically-worlds-apart Aldous Harding and High Tension. The Aldous […]
Gang of Youths + Ecca Vandal + The Furrs @ Woolly Mammoth, 16.05.2015
I’d had a few listens through of the new Gang of Youths as I knew they had an upcoming show in Brisbane and wanted to check out whether they sounded like a band that would appeal and be worth checking out to photograph. At the same time as this is going on, there’s a piece […]
