The past week has been a real ride as far as live music goes, so I’d like to share some photos I made while attending three wonderful shows. From down home folk to funky garage rock and everything in between, I really do mean it when I say that the music scene in Knoxville, Tennessee has something for everyone. Live music for me, has always been one of the easiest ways to get some inspiration or spark back to channel into other creative projects. I feel energized and like I've used my time well.
Whether it’s seeing friends out at the venues or listening to something interesting or outside my comfort zone, there’s really nothing like a late night out catching some bands.
This time I took along two cameras, my newly acquired Sony A7s with many of the lenses I talked about in my last post, as well as my trusty Canon 40D with an ultra-wide angle and a big old flash for some shutter drag photos.
Take a look at the photos below and check some of the bands music out!
