Kate Tempest // Live in Chicago
Kate Tempest has a way with words. She controls the English language in a way most of us only wish we could, with a stellar grasp of all things full of emotion and urgency. "More empathy, less greed." I feel quite privileged to have seen her recently, as well as being able to grab a few moments of her time for some portraits. Here's a little bit of that night at Chicago's Schubas. Massive thank you's to Kate, Alex, and her band, as well as Bela and everyone at Ninja Tune/Big Dada for being so incredible.

Royal Blood // Live in Chicago
It has to be said... sometimes you meet a band and you chat for the evening and part ways. Other times, you meet a band, and become part of the story, or they become part of yours, whichever way you prefer to look at it. Royal Blood came into my life via a friend who started working with them very early on, and since then, it's been nothing but laughs, and photos, and drinks, and crazy nights. I've enjoyed seeing their rise, and love to be able to call these two friends.
