I made this image during the ‘final show’ of the band Testify at Warp & Weft in Lowell MA. I was fighting with that spotlight behind her head all night.

Aaron Norcross, Jr. – Back Page Cafe, Lowell MA


2018 photo100 – #71

This one was captured in the now closed Back Page Cafe in Lowell in Feb. 2017. This one is a bit ‘grainier’ than I’d normally post but I like the angle and Aaron’s expression.

Thamsanqa Shabalala of Ladysmith Black Mambazo – 2018 Lowell Summer Music Series


2018 photo100 – #53

I, like most Americans, first experienced the vocal power of this group on Paul Simon’s 1986 album “Graceland”. The simple stage setup for this group, 9 microphones, belies the complexity of the harmonies and rhythms crafted by this Grammy winning ensemble.

Rhiannon Giddens – 2018 Lowell Summer Music Series


2018 photo100 – #35

Wow. I was not familiar with her work before the show but, Wow… just WOW! Her repertoire ranges through blues, ‘old time music’, gospel and a whole lotta in-between. My personal fav. was her renditon of the Ethel Waters version of ‘Under a Harlem Moon’ – standing ‘O’ ladies and gentlemen!

This is a long exposure of several folks with LED light sticks & hulla hoops. I captured this at a Matisyahu show in 2011.
