LISTEN TO THE SOUND OF YOUR CHILDREN REVOLTING! Beartooth cut through a rabid Fresno crowd in 115ºF heat like a hot knife through soft butter at Tioga-Sequoia Beer Garden on Saturday, July 6th, 2024 with support from Currents, Boundaries & NEVERTEL.
About a quarter century after I first heard them while still in college, Ozomatli remain on my favorite bands and I finally got to shoot them for Tower Theater and Numbskull Shows on Cinco de Mayo.
Together Pangea, Death Lens & Chico brought it to Strummer’s in Fresno.
Movements came to Downtown Fresno on March 30th, 2024 and they brought the RUCKUS!
This was one of my favorite shows I’ve shot at Strummer’s because, well, nostalgia. Barely-past-teenage me had a gargantuan crush on Monique Powell, which led me to start listening to Save Ferris more seriously and, as it turned out, they really were (and still are) a fun and tightly-talented squad of goofballs with instruments and, goddamn, can Monique sing!
When I saw the legendary Marky Ramone’s show at Strummer’s being announced, I immediately hit up the peeps at Numbskull and asked if I could come out of my weak-ass version of retirement and come out blasting!
Amyl & The Sniffers are a garage punk band from Melbourne, Australia fronted by a tiny firecracker named Amy Taylor whose piercing banshee of a voice took over Downtown Fresno on October 13th, 2023.
On my 6th time seeing them live, now that I’ve been listening to them for damn near a quarter of a century, I knocked out another bucket list band off my shooting list when Flogging Molly once again brought the Celtic fire to Fresno last night.
An epic night of hip-hop with one of my favorite hip-hop groups of all time: the iconic Souls of Mischief with special apperances by Raw Wattage & BKR. Keep your eyes peeled for Planet Asia on stage dropping a few bars as well.
Up until this year, I hadn’t heard of Turnover until my friend Zayda turned me onto them. As soon as they came up on the roster for Strummer’s in Fresno, I was all over it when Numbskull needed a photographer for the show.
