Yoji - Sure Thing (Cover)

Here is the live video I made of Yoji & The Fearless Rhythm Section, performing their cover of the well known Miguel song titled "Sure Thing".

I had originally gone to the trouble of doing some extras for these guys on top of filming and editing, I created the band their own YouTube channel, and spent some time uploading all four of the songs recorded during this session as individual videos, as a favour to them.

Unfortunately there were some disputes within the band, and somewhere during this, the YouTube channel (along with all the videos) was deleted.

So I have re-uploaded this one as it is my personal favourite from the session.

If any other bands/singers/musicians out there would like a similar video made, please get in touch for a reasonable quote.

Recorded live at Pioneer Studios in Colchester, Essex in October 2013.

Polar Collective

Polar Collective are a young, fun, five piece pop band. I did this shoot with them just last week, I've not had this much fun on a shoot in a while. SOOOO much energy and chemistry between them, constant banter and laughs.

They have been at it for about a year now, but they play like a band thats been together for much longer. Definitely one to watch.

Fledglings

One of my oldest friends emails me out of the blue to say that she has a new band called Fledglings, they are playing their first ever gig back in Ipswich at the Swan Pub & could I take some photos for them? With pleasure!

Most people will remember Becky from fronting the very much loved band, Making Eyes At Elvis (formerly Charlie Brown). She's been residing in London and studying/working, there fore hasn't done any band stuff for around six years. It was an absolute pleasure to see her back behind the keys and singing her heart out once again. 

I'm sure when people will talk about Fledglings they will probably say that there are of course some similarities between this band and Beckys past venture. However this band has an undoubtedly evolved sound, and some serious balls to boot. I couldn't help but hear some Mars Volta type moments in there set, as well as a little Modest Mouse, but mostly so much captivating originality. I genuinely cant wait for their next show.
