I traveled out to Hudson, NY to photograph Basilica Soundscape again this year. Photos of Swans, Deafheaven, White Lung, Tim Hecker, Richard Reed Perry, Gamelan Dharma Swara, Majical Cloudz and many more are up on Pitchfork.
It’s been an honor to travel out to Basilica Soundscape each year to shoot and witness it’s evolution. When I was growing up, my friends threw shows and mini festivals in their backyards as a way to create our own fun. Now imagine those friends are adults now and have the ability to do the same thing on a larger scale. That’s what Basilica Soundscape is. Nothing is more rewarding than to watch a group of friends make their vision flourish on this large of a scale without any corporate sponsorship and get to document it.
