Jesse Malin Played A Scorching Set At Newcastle Academy

I am a big  fan of Jesse and it is always a pleasure to be shooting one of his gigs. His new album Love It To Life recorded  with the Saint Marks Social is one of my albums of the year and the high energy songs are made to play live. Check out theimages in the gallery https://davidwala.net/jesse-malin-newcastle-academy-29-june-2010/

Instamatic For The People Project

Some of you may know that I have been taking instamatic images with my Fujifilm Instax camera for the past few months. I aim to document primarily local musicians in 2010 and have an exhibition towards the end of the year or in 2011. It will be interesting to reflect on our vibrant local music scene in years to come ,and all being well I plan to make this a yearly project.

I do not direct anyone for these images  in the way they pose I just want to document people as they want to be represented in 2010

A  big thank you to everyone that has participated so far.

I will be putting the images in the gallery very soon

 So far I have over forty participants, but will be adding to this in the coming months.
