Pressed Fest ‘22

This one’s beefy - strap in!

Smartmouth absolutely smashed Pressed Fest 2022 - a showcase of cider and local music. As per usual, I had a lovely time running around the Pilot House, and even more fun photographing the bands that performed into the night :~)

Chelsea Bakehouse’s gouda and bacon pie is fantastic, thanks for sharing one with me George!!

Jasper, Shannon, and George

Erwin, audio tech extraordinaire.

So much talent on this night! Starting off with Roberta Lea, Mark Rogers and Beth Turner.

Cassidy Snider & the Wranglers came out here from Richmond and the soul-billy sound hit home. The entire band was a blast to photograph, and I hope I captured their boot-scootin energy.

The lights were turned down for The Lazy Dangers, and I will always oblige the ask to dance.

I’m finding myself having a great time photographing live music lately, and my sister in law gave me some CineStill 800T that I might try to shoot with at the next show. I have another blog post coming shortly of another fest from this past weekend, and need to process some new black and white film I’ve been experimenting with. 

I hope everyone had a safe and tasty Thanksgiving!
