My first day in New York City coincided with a gig from the Australian indi-folk brother and sister duo, Angus + Julia Stone. Prior to leaving I’d managed to score a pass to shoot them thanks to their older sister Catherine.
The venue, while dark and not much bigger than The Vanguard, was filled to capacity, and not just with expats. As I waited patiently up front I met started talking to a fellow photographer, Mary Catherine, and discovered that while she was from New York City, she was here with her best friend, Marta Riggins, from Los Angeles – who turns out to be the Stone’s US Agent.
The Aussies turned on the charm and the audience definitely enjoyed themselves.


















Yes! The post I’ve been waiting for for a long time. Thanks!
That second last photo is like a dream.
