Triple j’s Nick Cave tribute

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.
Sparkadia Drum Cover

Last week a picture i took of Alex from Sparkadia graced the cover of Drum Media. It’s great to work with Alex again, we’ve a long history as i’m pretty sure i took their first ever press shots back in 2005 when they were still called The Spark. The picture they ran inside with the [...]
Sparkadia’s homecoming
My old chums Sparkadia headlined a packed Gaelic Theatre on Saturday night. It was good to see them back home after touring Europe and playing festival dates at Glastonbury and T in the Park. Like i did previously with Expatriate, i snapped a few pictures of Sparkadia backstage, nervously anticipating going on stage to a [...]
Come Together Festival at Luna Park
It’s been a while between shooting gigs for me, but i was back on the game on Saturday at the Come Together Festival at Luna Park. It was a good chance to catch up with a bunch of local bands and see the new upstarts. Bluejuice seemed to have the best crowd reaction all day. [...]
The Cops and Sparkadia at The Annandale

Death Cab For Cutie

The live shots aren’t too crash hot as i had to contend with a crammed audience. Those Death Cab fans sure are eager to [...]
Howling Bells, Red Riders and Sparkadia
Here’s some pictures of Howling Bells show last night at The Annandale. After moving to the UK it was a triumphant homecoming for the band formerly known as Waikiki. The show sold out several days earlier and expectations were high. It’s amazing what a good rap from NME and airplay on the OC will do [...]
Sparkadia
Here’s some more photos from the Sparkadia (née The Spark) shoot on Saturday. There’s several more in the Sparkadia Gallery. I find band photos can all look the same, 3 or 4 blokes (and thankfully sometimes the odd girl) all lined up looking moody. I got a little frustrated looking back at my photos realising [...]
