LIVE! Coheed + Cambria and Arcane Roots

Posted on by

Back in November, I was commissioned to shoot Coheed and Cambria for Team Rock’s Prog magazine. Arcane Roots were supporting, and it was a great show. I’ve always followed Coheed, so it was nice to be able to shoot them for a full page piece in Prog. I remember doing a work experience placement at NME magazine when I was 15 or 16, and sifting through press releases in the mail bag, listening to the CDs and sorting through the printed photographs (which seems so archaic now everything is done by email!) Coheed and Cambria’s press campaign for their debut album ‘Second Stage Turbine Blade’ was amongst the hundreds of CDs, I was a fan of it straight away!

 

Check out my photos from the show below, and of the magazine’s review too!

LIVE! – Soil + Fozzy

Posted on by

Last night, I was shooting a double headline gig at Brighton’s Concorde2 – Fozzy + Soil. I’d seen Fozzy before (also at Concorde2 actually, with Jettblack supporting) so was looking forward to their high energy show. Frontman Chris Jericho was great fun to photograph and was bounding about all over the stage! They put on an awesome show, and got the crowd raring to go for Soil who I was reeeally excited to shoot. I remember seeing Soil about 10 years ago at the Astoria in London. I was 17 and living in a flat in Islington, I happened to be walking down Charing Cross Rd and saw that Soil were playing, so I got a ticket from a tout and went in. Think I ended up crowdsurfing 4 or 5 times that gig and had a great time, but for some reason I never got round to seeing them again – til last night. Frontman Ryan McCombs was in the crowd for the whole of their last song ‘Halo’ and everyone was goin crazy đŸ™‚
