It’s taken a little while to get around to posting this update, for which I apologise. Thing is, I’ve been a bit busy.. being an official tour photographer again! Last June I was on tour with guitar superstar Phil-X and his band ‘The Drills’, along with Rob Chapman and his […]

‘The Engine Rooms’ in Skelmersdale is a refurbished warehouse, dedicated to music & arts tuition for the local youth. A bar, café, recording studios, tuition rooms and a stage area etc.. it’s exactly the kind of thing I’d have killed for as a kid in Skem. Decent enough lighting and […]
Festival season is well & truely upon us and, like buses, I was waiting for one and then two came along! Fresh from the Haighfest, last weekend I attended the Southport Rocks festival, held in Victoria Park, home of the famous Southport Flower Show. Now in it’s fifth year, the […]
