The Knotwork Band

I spent an evening enjoying the music of The Knotwork Band, so named after the Celtic Knotwork music they play. Kelli, Tommy, and Craig play a variety of musical styles as well as a variety of instruments. You'll hear guitars, fiddle, bodhrán, flute and whistles, mandolins, an Irish bouzouki, and of course, vocals. It was a very enjoyable show, and the group is funny and friendly, so go see them! Click for their website here. They have a show coming up, which is in Landisville, PA on August 8th. Now, some pics from the show!

Out With the Tyde

I had the pleasure of working with Southern Tyde again this past weekend. We drove around looking for spots to take some promotional photos, then they invited me to photograph their live show that night. It was another fun time with the group (see my previous blog post on the band), and they put on another great show of hard rocking country music for the crowd at JB McGinnis in Delaware. Southern Tyde has a new EP out, so find that here. Above the live photo gallery is a teaser photo from Southern Tyde's promotional shoot. The final photos will be up soon, so follow the band and/or JTG Photography to see those pics as soon as they're released!

The Moonlight Mutts

Over this past weekend, I got to see a band play that I've been looking forward to seeing for a while now. The Moonlight Mutts played the second annual Ham Jam benefit in Carlisle. The Moonlight Mutts are a very cool original rock band. They were a lot of fun to see and hang out with, also worth the wait to see them, so click on the link and find a show! If you can't catch them in person, click here to listen to some of their songs. Moonlight Mutts pics!

Rizzetta's Tones

I saw the Rizzetta's Tones for the second time over the weekend. It was more great music in the form of blended world influences. Click here to see information about the group and check their "live shows" tab for concert dates. They are a fun group to watch, and they're a group of great people, so see them if you can! Here are some pics from their latest show over the weekend.
