Here it is. A truly wonderful 11 minute read of our chat with Frank Iero. ‘So Jacqui here is a long time fan’ I not so discreetly announced whilst motioning to my writer I roped into coming along. Originally she was just going to tag along while I interviewed, providing a question or two here and there. From the get go, she instead took the lead in interviewing one of her musical heroes. Proud editor mum right here.

There are some exclusive piccies in this one, so I ask that you please credit if reposting. All me socials are tagged in the post x

Dem visuals. King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard at The Toff. This was years ago now - I bought a $10 ticket off a pal and snuck my camera in.

The same for this one too. The 1975 at Festival Hall. I think this was early 2015? Who knows. Time flies.

The 1975, side of stage at Splendour In The Grass. So honoured that this is still going around.

Hung out with Frank Iero today. One of the nicest dudes in music I’ve ever interviewed. Also, I went to take his photo and my lens cap was still on. Haven’t made that mistake in, ah, 4 years.

Foals / Festival Hall, 2016.  Man, this band always go hard.

Purity Ring / The Forum, 2016. A light show is like no other.

Wavves / Max Watts, 2016. Seeing your teenage angst band. Dang, it’s a good feeling.

The Maccabees / Fitzroy, 2016. Sweetest dudes. Made for an amazing interview and visual series.

The Maccabees / Falls Festival, 2015. Stoked to see these lads for the first time ever. I was too young at the time of their last visit in 2012.

Foals / Festival Hall, 2016. Hehehe. I got this shot because I was somewhere I shouldn’t have been. Oh well, gotta get that snap, amirite.

Bloc Party / Falls Festival, 2015. When this was shared on all of Bloc Party’s socials, well, I died. One of the most iconic moments in my career.

Foals / Falls Festival, 2015/16. Spent the first 10 minutes of 2016 in the pit shooting Foals. Honestly couldn’t think of a better start to the year. nb. That’s Jimmy with a bottle of Moet. Bloody high rollers.

Chet Faker / Sydney Myer Music Bowl, 2015. Reflecting on the best shows I’ve shot this year - this had to be one of them. I find new favourites every time I look at the whole gallery.

Hugh Fuchsen and Sauce Sauce Sauce / Newport Lakes, 2015. I project manage these dudes. They’re wonderful.

Matt Corby / The Forum, 2015. I’ve shot a couple of Matt Corby’s shows now. Every one of them is magical.
