inji electrifies washington, dc
About 2 years ago, I had the amazing opportunity to photograph rising pop-star Inji at The Atlantis in Washington, DC. About 2 weeks ago, I had the same amazing opportunity to photograph her at the 9:30 Club; Atlantis' larger sister venue. Both performances blew my expectations out of the water - the ecstatic energy Inji brought to the stage flowed throughout the audience who returned it right back to her. Singing, dancing, laughing, yelling, and everything in-between flooded

Autocrave by Fernway
“Like sugar for a sweet tooth” I think the best way to summarise Fernway’s debut album ‘Autocrave’. Once you have some you’ll be crawling back for more, and Fernway is serving us a whole dessert buffet. The nine-track album brings a sensational nostalgic feel which, upon first listen, took me back to my 5 Seconds of Summer loving days. With nods to traditional pop rock instrumentals and vocals, ‘Autocrave’ is truly a brilliant debut launch for Fernway. Themes that are explore
