Whitney Nichole and Keeley Valentino | Pacific Northwest ‘Tour on the Edge of Glory’
Throughout the first half of July, I had the pleasure of wearing many hats on Whitney Nichole and Keely Valentino‘s aptly dubbed ‘Tour on the Edge of Glory.’ Part tour manager, part roadie, part driver, part photographer/videographer & documentarian, and altogether psyched to be on the road in the name of music for a few [...]

Tiny Telephone Recording Studio with Debbie Neigher
This past October, I had the pleasure of spending a day in the Tiny Telephone recording studio with my good friend, San Francisco-based singer-songwriter, Debbie Neigher. She’s getting closer to the release date of the album, and we’re both happy to finally share these images with the world 
Debbie, producer John Vanderslice and sound engineer Ian Pellicci were working on a few tracks on John’s ridiculously sickly amazing lineup of analog gear, including one phenomenal Studer 827 2″ 24 track system and their historically significant Neve 5316 Console. While I was there, Debbie and John were gracious enough to grant me full access to the studio where I was able to capture what it’s like during a day in the life of Debbie recording her debut album.
MarchFourth Marching Band at The Independent
What do you get when you take everything awesome about a percussive multi-headed drum section, funky horns, smooth guitar and bass licks all paired together with hip hop circus, vaudeville burlesque, one hilarious cowboy MC, and a little bit ‘o something you just can’t explain… you get: MarchFourth Marching Band. Add that fantastic combination of originality and pull together a sellout crowd at The Independent, and you’ve got yourself a recipe for a grand ‘ol time. And a grand ‘ol time is what everyone had during M4′s recent visit to San Francisco.

KYRO, Kaitlin McGaw, Whitney Nichole, and Liz Ryder at Red Devil Lounge
