It is just great when you get to see a band /artist that you are not familiar with. To my shame I had only heard a few songs Annie Clark on You Tube – but I am now the owner of both her albums. The power of music and seeing a great live band !
Actually may have seen her way back with the Polyphonic Spree.
Here is a picture from the gig and you can click through to see the set on Flickr

It has been a busy beginning to 2014. I have worked on magazine assignments, photo shoots, live shows and videos.
Here is a composite image of Peculiar Disco Moves from a shoot in February

Ralph Ellison was born 100 years ago today. I am incredibly proud and moved that my photograph is the cover for the Penguin Classics print of the Invisible Man.
It is such a powerful and moving novel.

@telegramband a great new band. Definitely one of the most exciting live bands around at the moment. On tour now with Palma Violets
Can’t wait to see some of their headline shows – hopefully soon.
Had so much fun seeing this band – love their album and a great live band.
Also will remember Magical Mystery Tour, Ye Old Crack, The Phil, Cinammon toast in Leaf, thunder and lighting, torrential rain in Leeds, Elaine style dancing, and great company.
Hope they come back soon
