Perfume Genius @ The Hamilton

Perfume Genius in Concert

The Hamilton proved to be a great venue to see Perfume Genius perform songs from his critically acclaimed album Too Bright. Mike Hadreas had the audience enthralled all night and it was easy to understand why. The dramatic lighting also helped set the mood for the show. The spotlights in particular gave me a lot of different looks to work with.

I had another assignment last year when Johnny Marr came through D.C. touring behind his brilliant 2013 album The Messenger, which was a damn shame because he was amazing when I saw him at Coachella that year. The Messenger has stayed in heavy rotation on all my music streaming devices and Marr’s new album Playland is slowly working its hooks into me as well. So I was obviously excited about shooting this show. I was really impressed…

Diarrhea Planet @ Fredericksburg All Ages

Last Saturday some friends and I hopped in a car and drove an hour south to catch Diarrhea Planet play the last show on their never-ending tour before they return to the studio to record their next record. The show was a gig for Fredericksburg All Ages, a nonprofit that puts on concerts for the teenagers in the area. This was also my first ever Diarrhea Planet show as I refuse to go to the venue in…
