On Tour With The Twilight Sad

I packed my bags and hit the road with The Twilight Sad for the last few nights of their north American tour in May. I’m saving all the backstage and behind the scenes shots for future blackmail efforts. But here are my favorite moments from each of the three performances. There are also a few shots of their tour opener, the lovely Kathryn Joseph, thrown in for good measure.

The Cure at BST Hyde Park

Thank you to The Twilight Sad for having me over for BST. In addition to capturing a day with The Sad, I was also fortunate enough to photograph The Cure’s healining set at British Summertime in Hyde Park, London on July 9th, 2018. These are my favorite images from that 40th anniversary special show.

The Specials at The Warfield

The Specials made their first bay area appearance in over 30 years at the Warfield in March of 2013. I was there to document it all.

Railroad Earth at The Fillmore

As house photographer at The Fillmore, I get to photograph many bands that otherwise wouldn’t be on my radar. Railroad Earth is one of those bands. The crowds couldn’t have been nicer.
