Big Day Out Sydney 2012

Daniel Boud — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 08:59:00 +0000

Another Australia Day, another trip out to Homebush for the Big Day Out.

Like my first time photographing Big Day Out back in 2006 i was shooting pictures for SPIN.

Lisa Mitchell performs 'Into My Arms'

Triple j’s Nick Cave tribute show, dubbed Straight To You, rolled through Sydney’s Enmore theatre last week and i dropped by to take some pictures and catch up with old pals.

At the end of "Into my Arms" Lisa Mitchell embraces Jake Stone. Get it?

Splendour Studio 2011

At Splendour in the Grass this year i teamed up again with FasterLouder for the Splendour Studio, where we set up a studio backstage to take pictures of the artists.

We had a broad theme this year of a Willy Wonka sugar high vibe. Lots of lollies and silly colourful outfits.

It was stupid amounts of fun.

You can see all the pictures in this special Splendour Studio gallery with large pictures to browse. You can click each frame to advance to the next.

Here’s a small taste – but seriously, look at the BIG PHOTO GALLERY.

Rolling Stone Awards portraits

Daniel Boud — Sun, 06 Mar 2011 09:41:07 +0000

I have a few more photos in the current issue of Rolling Stone in a spread they did on coverage of the Rolling Stone Awards party. People were there for the awards and to get sozzled on the free tequila but i pulled people and award winners away for some portraits.

I had a little nook at the party where i set up some lights and a couple of backdrops, a red paper roll, some vintage wallpaper and a white wall.

The spreads in the magazine are a mix of the portraits i took and party shots another photographer did.

Here’s some more pictures that didn’t make the cut.

Art vs Science - to motivate them i asked 'what would Wolfmother do?'

Splendour Studio – Day 2

Daniel Boud — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 00:18:13 +0000

Florence Welch

By day two of the FasterLouder Splendour Studio i’d just about lost my voice. The combination of festival dust, tiredness and a day of barking instructions took it out of me. So i hoarsley rasped my way through the following days, prodding musicians to do this and that.

Here’s my photos from day 2 featuring Clare Bowditch, Two Door Cinema Club, Florence and the Machine, Jonathan Boulet, Band of Horses, Band of Skulls, Magic Numbers, Bluejuice, Tame Impala, Paul Kelly, The Drums and Midnight Juggernauts.

Clare Bowditch

The first act of the day was the delightful Clare Bowditch. She also made up one of the trio of gorgeous redheads i photographed, with Ana Matronic and Florence Welch too.

Jonathan Boulet

Jonathan Boulet wasn’t really into props, but when the idea was put to him to smash his face with glitter he was more than happy.

Band of Skulls

Magic Numbers

Tame Impala

Two Door Cinema Club

The Drums

While i was photographing The Drums i had a strong sense that i’d photographed them before – even though i knew i hadn’t. Turns out i’d snapped two of the members in their former band Elkland five years ago in Austin.

The Drums

Wolfmother

Florence Welch

The act who i was probably most nervous about shooting at the whole festival was Florence Welch. She has the potential to make a beautiful photograph and i didn’t want to stuff it up.

She was very nice, but reserved and quiet. Quite at odds with the booming presence she has on stage. Perhaps she preserves her energies for the performance.

Annandale Hotel 10th Birthday

Daniel Boud — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 06:30:09 +0000

Jimmy Barnes on stage at the Annandale with band members Davey Lane and Charlie Owen

Over the past couple of weeks my local, The Annandale Hotel has been celebrating its ten year anniversary. The place has stood for a lot longer than ten years, but the anniversary marks the time it’s been owned and run in it’s current incarnation by Matt and Dan Rule.

I saw a couple of the gigs, and took a photo for Drum Media to coincide with the anniversary.

While i wouldn’t normally call myself a Jimmy Barnes fan, it was pretty special watching him belting out the hits like Khe Sanh, Flame Trees and Working Class Man. I wasn’t intending to take photos, but when Andy invited me along he said i’d regret it if i didn’t, and he was probably right. So i took a few snaps from behind the bar.

They accompany a story he wrote for Mess and Noise, primarily about his cab ride to the gig.

And here’s a couple of shots i did for Drum Media featuring Richard Clapton (who had to leave before we shot the second shot), Jake and Stav from bluejuice, Jay Whalley from Frenzal Rhomb and Pete Kostic from Regurgitator and Front End Loader.

Homebake 2008

Daniel Boud — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 21:13:52 +0000

On a sweltering Saturday last week Homebake rolled round again, taking over Sydney’s Domain.

The visual highlight was surely Nick Littlemore’s dramatic entrance for Pnau’s set.

Hoisted angelically into the rafters to sing their opening song Wild Strawberries, it was a superbly Spinal Tap moment.

In a hark back to 2005 when the Finn brothers headlined Homebake, Crowded House closed the evening with some sing-a-longs.

You Am I were in fine form, with some strings and extra percussion accompaniment.

It wasn’t really all that exciting to me, but the agency photographers were all snap happy for Gabriella Cilmi.

I’m glad i finally got see Violent Soho, reminding me of the nineties stoner grunge i used to listen to. Quite unique on the scene at the moment.

Everyone’s favourite band seems to be Eddy Current Suppression Ring. SPIN magazine too.

Dash and Will were really sweet. Nice pop tunes. A more sunny and colourful Tegan and Sara. I can see them becoming rather popular. Jerry from whothehell.net is in love with them.

Lots more snaps in the Homebake photo gallery.
