  • ANTI-POP CONSORTIUM

    I was pretty excited about heading down to Lucky bar to photograph Anti-Pop Consortium. I had heard lots of great stuff about them and their lyrics and sound are brilliant.ย The show was great but to be honest I was a little distracted by the fact that my camera loved them ๐Ÿ˜‰ The first images are of TBA (Truth Becomes Audio) who opened for them.
