On a rainy Thursday evening in D.C., I found myself walking amongst concert attendees adorned in cowboy boots and trucker hats. Only, we were heading to different places. As they headed down The Wharf to catch a show at The Anthem, I instead...

If you were in Richmond, Virginia on the night of August 9th, chances are you spotted a few stars roaming the streets. Stars on hairclips, stars on belts, stars on skirts, stars on shirts. Keeping on theme with 5 Seconds of Summer’s “EVERYONE’S A STAR!” World Tour fans flocked to...

Baltimore is a city seemingly defined by structures. Old brick houses sagging on steel support beams. Towering half-glass office buildings which wrap around the sky like translucent blue fortresses. Small bars and restaurants tucked in back...

A delightful mix of pop-punk classics, hardcore, and EDM pumped in through D.C.’s Union Stage speakers as I walked into the room on June 22nd. I knew I was in for a great night with Jhariah, and one of the coolest...

I truly believe that one of the worst things that can happen at a music festival is rain. And that is exactly what happened late into day two of Let’s Go festival. About half way through Matt and Kim’s set, they promptly left the stage, and...

I am a long time fan of Hammer 47. My first time ever working with them was back in March of 2024, and this show marked my sixth time shooting for them. They bring the energy to every single gig that they play, whether it is...
