The Dead Weather

The Dead Weather rocks and so does Alison Mosshart! I just love her and she is the ultimate front woman. She slithers and oozes sex appeal and being a badass. All of Jack White's side projects are interesting. Dean Fertita and Jack Lawrence fill out the rest of this very professional band. These are some shots from the "Sea of Cowards" tour. I really enjoyed their set...now if I could only shoot The Kills :)

Sleigh Bells

I didn't really know to much about Sleigh Bells before the show except that I had heard Alexis Krauss put on a manic performance. This was correct, she was all over the place. This was probably the hardest show to shoot because of her energy and the constant strobes that could put you into a seizure. Her band mate Derek E. Miller added the backdrop for the sonic noise pop assault.

Janelle Monae

Kansas City's own Janelle Monae performing at the Granada Theater in Lawrence Kansas. I really hadn't heard much of her music before the show but became an instant fan of her all out crazy show in which she sang, jumped, wriggled on the ground and even painted. I think she is opening for Katy Perry coming up next month in KC.
