Sing City with Beats and Pieces Big Band

Sing City is a weekly song writing and performance workshop for young musicians. It’s run by Brighter Sound and is held at Manchester’s iconic Band on the Wall. The young people who take part are mentored and supported by acclaimed local musicians, Natalie McCool, Phil Howley and James Holt, alongside occasional special guest artists who run one off masterclasses. I went along to photograph one such masterclass, hosted by the Beats and Pieces Big Band – a jazz collective, originating from Manchester who hosted Sing City during a month long European tour. Here are some of my favourite images from the night.

Pee Wee Ellis FUNK: Foundation, Brighter Sound’s Artistic Director Series #009

A couple of weeks ago I had the privilege of photographing the legendary saxophonist Pee Wee Ellis as part of Brighter Sound’s 9th Artistic Director Series, FUNK: Foundation. Pew Wee was a major part of James Brown’s band in the 1960s and co-wrote several of the Godfather of Soul’s greatest hits. Alongside the supremely talented trumpeter Gary Winters, Pee Wee worked with a group of 15 young musicians over the course of 4 days to create a roof-raising funk-tastic one-off performance at Band on the Wall.

I’ve collated a selection of my favourite images from the residency in the gallery below for you to enjoy. Stay funky people!

Imogen Heap Residency with Brighter Sound

Earlier  this month I had the pleasure of working with Brighter Sound again, this time documenting their latest Artistic Director residency, with singer and composer Imogen Heap. Under Imogen’s guidance, in just 5 days a group of 10 talented young musicians, who had never met before, managed to write, produce and release a song, film and edit a music video, create the single cover art, produce an exhibition and put on a live show at Manchester’s Band on The Wall. It was an incredible achievement and a real privilege top document. They named their band Frink Frink and their song, Marble, is now available to purchase on itunes and all good online music stores.

You can see a selection of my favourite images from the residency below.

Science in The City Late – Anna Meredith’s residency with Brighter Sound

Commissioned by Brighter Sound, Anna Meredith’s four-day residency with a group of young female musicians, visual artists and sound engineers, culminated in a special, one-off performance at Manchester’s Museum of Science and Industry as part of Science in the City Late. The music and art they created was inspired by graphene and the incredible Wonder Materials exhibition. The exhibition was open all evening alongside a range of weird and wonderful exhibits and stalls including opportunities to try 3d-printed chocolate and insect sushi.

You can see a selection of my favourite images from the night below.

One of the highlight’s of this year’s Chorlton Arts Festival was a performance from Ren Harvieu & Romeo Stodart (of the Magic Numbers). It was an incredible gig, full of warmth and intimacy, and well deserving of the rapturous standing ovation it received at it’s close.

Roz & Alan’s Wedding at Islington Mill, 7th May 2016

Roz and Alan were married at Islington Mill in Salford on Saturday, 7th May, 2016. I was really excited to shoot a wedding at Islington Mill as, though it was a venue I’d photographed before, for events such as  The Last Sunday, but I’d never shot a wedding there. Roz and Alan decorated the Mill in ribbons, bunting, flowers and fairy lights  and made it look totally magical. It was a beautiful wedding, full of colour and a real delight to photograph. Here are a small selection of some of my favourite images from the day. There are lots more images in the full gallery, which friends and family of the happy couple can view here (but you’ll need to get the password from Roz or Alan).

House of Suarez Sugar Ball 2016 @ Gorilla, Manchester

Last weekend was the annual House of Suarez Vogue Ball at Gorilla in Manchester. It was an incredible night of voguing, dance, fashion and fierceness and an amazing celebration of queer culture. Here are some of my favourite shots from the evening.
