Phoenix Bar - 28/04/15



As a lover of good music having a live venue a stones throw away is perfect. Without fail whenever I venture down to the Phoenix Bar in Wycombe I'm met with an array of amazing & talented acts in an intimate setting. Tuesday 28-04-15 was no different, for a £3 entry I got to see 4 fantastic acts.

1. Alan Jaggs


- This one man show was up first. While rocking a The Wonder Years t-shirt he expertly strummed his way through quirky songs about anything & everything. The surprisingly emotional set was concluded by Made to Remember with its infectious repetitive melody that remained in my head for days... I had no complaints. 

2. Times Like These


Having known 2/3 of this band for the best part of 5 years has nothing to do with my love for this band. Despite their youth they can easily hold their own against the best of them. With a perfect mix of covers & originals I'll never get tired of seeing these lads live.

3. Feet First 


Pop-punk powerhouses from Hertfordshire, their performance was second to none. When performing single Boarders the vocalist & guitarist was in the crowd spinning and breaking it down. But it was the sets grand finale that was the nights highlight when it fueled circle & mosh pits galore even some of the crowd jumping on stage to join in on gang vocals.

4. Coast to Coast 


A cover of a One Direction & A Day To Remember song plus a mini-episode of Stricly in the crowd was a very exciting conclusion to the night. Any band that can stick a killer breakdown in a one direction song & keep the kids dancing is respected highly in my books. This band knew how to put on a show and concluded a fantastic intimate night in my little home-town bar.

Cracked Mirror Sunsets - Bing Wright Inspired






                                                   



These images were shot over the course of a single sunset in the time frame of around 10 minutes. The idea of capturing through a cracked mirror came from Bing Wright. I love this concept/idea as broken mirrors in general are seen as what they are, broken. However from my own, Bing Wrights images & various other amazing works of art that incorporate broken mirrors that just because it's broken doesn't mean it can't be beautiful.
