It’s not often you come across a crew with Filipino emcee’s on the team, being Pinoy myself I truly enjoyed this group. Friends I give you TH3RDZ. These images do this act no justice, they were a blast to shoot. You can listen to their set on KEXP Street Sounds here. More photos and video after the jump.

Local hip-hop artist Sol flowed on by KEXP’s Audioasis back in March. I really enjoyed his sound considering I’m hard on emcees. Look out for this guy.  You can listen to his full set here. More photos after the jump. Shout out to KEXP for letting me  photograph these intimate studio sessions. Peace.

Oh blog, how I’ve neglected you. Things have been hectic at the day job and photography has taken a backseat…gasp. Back in February I shot an in studio with Seattle rock  band Brokaw for KEXP. You can listen to the full set here. More photos on deck, I promise.

My latest assignment for KEXP took me to Seattle’s famed Crocodile to shoot Merge recording artist, Eleanor Friedberger. Eleanor is currently on the Portlandia Tour and will be doing her thing at SXSW. Check the Live Review on KEXP. More photos after the jump.

Last week it was hip-hop with Seattle’s own J. Pinder on Street Sounds. My recent work with KEXP introduced me to folk rocker James Apollo described as “wanderer” who calls Seattle home…at least for now. To listen to his set recorded live on The Morning Show, click here. I personally enjoyed his recently released single “Two x Two”.

Blending my love of photography and music, I’ve started to shoot live in studio sessions at KEXP here in Seattle. I get to make images, while the artist make music, everybody wins. Check out my first in studio with local Seattle hip-hop artist J. Pinder. To listen to the full set, click here. Looking forward to documenting more acts for KEXP. I’ll post photos from recent studio sessions with James Apollo and Brokaw later this week.
