Music Photography: Jake Bugg Live @ The Ritz

This was my first visit to The Ritz in Manchester. I have of course photographed at many venues across Manchester so it was nice to add a new venue to the list! It’s a great venue with a 1500 capacity. Thankfully it is also blessed with great lights!

The Jake Bugg show was a complete sell out so the place was buzzing. First on stage were The Silent Palms from Georgia, USA. They went down well with the crowd.

Music Photography: The Eyres Promo

We have worked with The Eyres many times since their inception as Sink Or Swim. They have gone through several line-up changes so keep us busy with lots of photography! The latest line-up needed some new photos ahead of some upcoming shows at The Box, Crewe and other great venues so we got together and produced a set of studio images. As it warms up outside we are planning to head out for some location photos to add to their vast collection!

It’s always good fun working with The Eyres. Lead singer Oli Ng was also with us all day for Boxjam V, the charity event we organise every year at The Box in Crewe. Thank Oli, and the rest of The Eyres!
