Manuel Antonio National Park in Costa Rica

When I returned to Costa Rica for the second time, there was one place I knew we had to visit that, since I had missed it the first time around. Manuel Antonio National Park is in the central Pacific Coast side of Costa Rica and…

Dragondeer with Jocelyn & Chris at Larimer Lounge

I met Eric Halborg many years ago when his band Swayback played my school fundraiser. That event has introduced me to so many local bands that I have stayed friends with over the years - and while I have seen Dragondeer play more times than…

Rob Drabkin Birthday Bash 2016

Rob Drabkin and Keaton Simons at the Bluebird

Rob Drabkin was one of the first Denver musicians I ever met, way before I started photographing them, so I never miss his January Birthday Bash at the Bluebird Theater. This year was extra special because Keaton Simons came in from LA to celebrate Rob's special day. I was able to look up the first time I photographed Keaton: 2011, with Megan Burtt - another Denver musician I know well and photographed separately just last week. The venn diagram of all this makes my head spin. Denver band Chimney Choir opened for these guys, and it was my first time photographing them (but not my last). Rob has been making a lot of beautiful videos lately, the lastest, "Down To Fate" and "Stay (Till The Morning Light Fades)," are featured on his Vevo page. As for Keaton? He is playing with Chris Cornell right now. You know, that dude from Soundgarden.

Thanks to all these great musicians for an awesome concert!
