Rich Price – Moonlight Breaks CD Release show in Burlington
December 13, 2011
No comments
This past weekend, Rich Price celebrated the release of his 4th solo album, Moonlight Breaks, with a show at Burlington’s Black Box Theater. This was my first visit to the theater and I didn’t know what to expect. It’s a small, black (aptly named, eh?) room with moderately steeply sloping seats. Every seat in the [...]
Tomorrow Never Knows – A Tribute to The Beatles

Tomorrow Never Knows is the outgrowth of a show that I saw a few months ago down at Nectar’s. Back then, they were called “Rubber Revolver” and apparently only intended to play that one show. Well, I can say that it was a smashing success and I was ecstatic to hear that they were playing [...]

Last week, Andrew Parker-Renga put out the call on Facebook that he would be back in Burlington, Vermont recording a live album at Nectar’s. I was first introduced to his music through my friends in The Grift and now that I live in the neighborhood, what could I do but join him? Andrew played two [...]

And now, for something completely different. While I was in Rhode Island, I decided to try some HDR photography. It’s not something I do a lot of, but with this particular vacation I wasn’t willing to take the time to set up a shot when the light was right, so HDR seemed like a good [...]

Just before Thanksgiving, I was contacted by the Vermont band Shakedown to take some new photos for their website. They had just experienced a shakeup and had some new members. Normally, I connect up with bands in the spring, summer, and early fall and take outdoor photos around Burlington. This time, we met in a [...]
Jer Coons, Back at Higher Ground

Last Friday, in the Higher Ground Showcase Lounge, Jer Coons returned home to play for his friends & family. Opening for him were Seth Glier and Jesse Ruben. We didn’t hear about the show until the middle of the week, so I suspect that’s why the room wasn’t sold out. (Jer has a history of [...]
Early last month — you remember, then the temperatures were in the mid 90′s and the humidity matched — I connected up with Miranda Ferriss Jones to take some photos for her upcoming album. She was back in town visiting her family and had a vision for some photos contrasting the vintage dresses she performs [...]
Normally, when The Sweet Remains comes to town they’re booked in the Flynnspace or Higher Ground. For Jazz Fest, they came to American Flatbread to play an outdoor show in the back alley. I had never seen music there, and didn’t know what to expect. The wait for a table was over an hour, but [...]
