01.20.2012 Toy Devil’s Album Release (Winter Ransom)

Toy Devil’s had their album release party at Vinyl featuring Brain, Sneaky Hand, Winter Ransom and of course Toy Devils as the headliner. I had a blast seeing all my friends in one spot and seeing fellow photographer Kamil in the green room. I started off at Darwin’s to shoot Swamp Funk, then headed into town in time to catch Winter Ransom as they were getting on stage. Check out the pics:

09.14.2011 Winter Ransom + Novakord + Ross Pead

Ross Pead @ Darwin’s Burgers and Blues My night started out with a nice chill acoustic set with Ross Pead. It’s been a nice change of pace having some relaxing acoustic music in the evening these past few days, but now I was ready for some heavier music!

Novakord: I grabbed a chicken salad sandwich and chili cheese fries and headed down to Atlanta! I popped in my Cazanovas cd hopped on the freeway own to East Atlanta. First up was Novakord. I’d met these guys several times at various other shows, but was never able to catch their set until now. I made it a point to get there on time so I could see their act! It was well worth it, this 3-piece set produces a rich soundscape! All 3 of them have laptops within reach to add another layer of sounds to the music, very cool stuff!

Winter Ransom: Next up is Winter Ransom. This time Homer stayed on for the whole set, and they played several new songs! I’m not sure if it was the sound system, or the addition of another guitar but some of the heavier parts got a bit muddled. Matt’s drums, Drew’s bass, and Jordan’s vocals really stood out and was able to break through the wall of guitars. All in all, Homer’s guitar noodlings really help round out the band’s sound.

Headlining the evening was Winter Ransom! I don’t think these guys need an introduction, they’ve been featured on my site several times. They put on an amazing set as always, and even played some new songs! Once again Homer from FYN joined them onstage for a few songs, can we expect this to be a regular occurrence? I hear he’s been practicing with them more these days…

06.25.2011 Winter Ransom

On June 25th, an epic concert broke out at Star Bar in Little 5 Points. A The Color, Winter Ransom, and Jungol came together and put on AMAZING show!

I met Winter Ransom a year ago and have been following them since! These guys put on an amazing show every time they hit the stage. Winter Ransom is the reason I came out, and when I hear these great musicians talk about how amazing Jungol is, well you’ve got my interest.

Check out pictures from A The Color.
Stay tuned, Jungol pictures are on the way!
