The Chapman Family

An old shot this and one of my favourites. Taken at The Windmill in Brixton (truly one of the last great London music venues in an age of HMV buyouts and energy drink sponsorship).

I recall this as a three men and a dog in the audience kinda gig and seem to remember the power failed half way through. It didn’t visibly faze the band, which is why they’re probably vying (and rather successfully) for the title of the ‘most exciting live band around right now’.

Anway, tiny venue, no light, lots of flash and some great black and white shots. And this one is all lines and angles and cabley squiggles – it’s exactly the shot I was going after, capturing the stickyness of the floor, the mess of cabling and the feel of rock n roll in the tiniest of venues. Perfect.
