I do Culture Vultures too...

For the past two years, my wife and I have been photographing and reviewing local concerts for a website called melophobe.com. It's been great to see lots of good music (and get into shows for free). We cover everything from folk-rock (Fleet Foxes) to post-rock (Radiohead), and hip-hop (GZA, Akrobatik, The Roots).

Last Saturday, I covered the Great Lake Swimmers at the Brattle Theater in Cambridge. Here's some photos
