Full Moon Festival // Brooklyn
With a full blue moon rising above Brooklyn, people from all over the globe got together party it up at the Full Moon Festival on Aug. 1. Yelle, Slow Hands and MOTHXR were just some of the acts who graced the stage.

Mourn // Live in Chicago
Mourn put on a dynamic performance at Schubas in Chicago, IL on July 19, appearing nowhere near exhausted from their Pitchfork set earlier that same day. The Catalonian quartet drew an impressive crowd and gained more momentum with each song -- gravelly vocals evoking their alt/punk influences Patti and PJ. Those like myself watching Mourn for the first time were completely captivated by the rawness and sincerity beyond their years.

The Photo Ladies // A Focus on Film
I love live music, but more than that I love to photograph live music! If I am at concert I will more than likely have my camera in my hands! I have seen and photographed so many great bands and musicians over the years! These are just a few of my favorite shots I have taken and that I am most proud of!

Radio 104.5 Summer Block Party // Philadelphia
Every summer, Philadelphia's Alternative music station, Radio 104.5, hosts a monthly concert series called the "Radio 104.5 Summer Block Party". The June block party was held at Festival Pier in Philadelphia where multiple bands came together to kick off the local outdoor concert season, including hometown band Foxtrot & the Get Down, Big Data, Misterwives, New Politics, and A Silent Film. The weather was beautiful and the party was going strong. The day was full of high spirits and energy and hosted bands who put their everything into their music and it certainly showed on the stage throughout the entire afternoon.

Alex Winston // At Schubas in Chicago
Alex Winston has been making the rounds and some noise for a while now, and I was recently able to (on very short notice, thanks to her killer PR folks) meet up with her in Chicago ahead of her packed headline show at Schubas. You can currently catch up with Alex on her website (iamalexwinston.com), as well as supporting her new Pledge Music campaign (pledgemusic.com/projects/alexwinston) that includes some unique opportunities. (My favourite is the gorgeous pink signed 7" of 'Careless).
