Modest Mouse & Brand New
This was a little more of a sentimental show for me because I went through phases with both Modest Mouse & Brand New when I was in high school - but never made it to see either of them live during that time. I was excited to get the opportunity to photograph both bands all these years later. Modest opened with their full eight-piece ensemble, and almost every instrument under the sun including multiple guitars, stand-up & electric bass, banjo, keys, xylophone, trumpet, tuba, wood block and two drum sets. Slideshow for Miami New Times.

Weezer & Panic! at the Disco
It was a muggy evening at Bayfront Park downtown, with the longest line I've ever seen wrapping around all sides of the amphitheater hours before the show. Andrew McMahon opened for Panic! at the Disco & Weezer, who sold the venue out for the first time in months and played a fun, nostalgic show for the fan-girl mob. Slideshow for Miami New Times.
May Fourth @ J. Wakefield Brewery
Despite the drizzly weather, Miami's Star Wars fan collective packed into J. Wakefield's cozy Wynwood Brewery on May 4 to drink beer in good company, while the original saga flickered on tv in the background. Slideshow for Miami New Times.
III Joints @ The Anderson
III Points dropped their first big lineup announcement on Wednesday - Method Man & Redman will be performing live at this year's annual music, art & technology festival! To celebrate, III Points hosted a "III Joints" 4/20 hang at The Anderson, sounds and vibes provided by a cue of local artists and djs, including Mokibaby's distinct stacked tv installations. Slideshow for Miami New Times.
Counter Corner
It was a wild Sunday night at Counter Corner as Otto von Schirach filmed a music video for his Pee-Wee Herman single, and The Corner threw their monthly queer party featuring an eclectic cast of local drag queen characters. Slideshow for Miami New Times.
