Pistola Kicks

Recently I met Rich Martin, the lead singer of Sheffield based band Pistola Kicks and we decided that we'd like to team up for a shoot. Pistola' were due to support The Holloways (photo's from that set coming soon..) as part of Sheffield University's Freshers Week entertainments so what better time to go and make some images! The Sheffield based band deliver catchy, infectious rock and look like they have the potential to follow in the footsteps of other notable local bands such as Reverend and the Makers and of course the Arctic Monkeys. A great group of lads, I wish them the best of luck.

The Charlatans

The first night of Stockton Fringe Festival was headlined by The Charlatans; one of the few early 1990's 'Madchester' bands to still be performing today. Along with the customary three song rule, all of the photographer's were presented with extremely challenging lighting conditions - all back lit, all red's, no light filling from the front!

The Proclaimers

Hello again.. apologies for the delay but i've been sorting out my big move! I'm now sat in my very nice, 'cosy' (cheap) new flat eagerly awaiting the start of my course next Monday. In the meantime i'll be able to try and get on top of my massive backlog of images before I start a whole new pile with the onset of the course.

As with The Chapman Family shots, these were taken at Stockton Fringe Festival. And no, I didn't walk 500 miles to get these shots.
