I started Day 2 in the mid-afternoon with a visit to the Freedom Stage for Channel Tres. In my four years of attending the festival, this was the only stage at which I had never seen a set. The stage is usually reserved for electronic artists, since it has a robust set up for heavy […]
For the second year in a row, I had the honor of covering the Made in America Festival for WQHS. It’s my fourth year at the festival overall, making it an important part of my fall at Penn. The lineup this year made me particularly excited, and I think overall is the best that it’s […]
This is part two of my coverage of Made in America. This article discusses Sunday, Day 2. JPEGMAFIA I started the day by heading back to the Skate Stage to catch JPEGMAFIA’s set. I knew some of his music, so I thought I knew what I was getting myself into. I was very, very wrong. He […]
This year was my third year attending Made in America, but my first year going as a photographer. It was also the largest gig I’ve ever shot. The energy of a festival crowd is very different than that of a concert, where people have paid to see a specific artist. At a festival, people might […]
The Agenda Festival, part of the Agenda Trade Show, held its second annual show on June 30th in Long Beach, California, and threw a massive party with an impressive 15,000 people in attendance.

A crowd of thousands roars as the last snowboarder lands a jump perfectly at the bottom of the 16-story high ramp. He’s the last competitor of this round, so the crowd shuffles over to the Main Stage, a huge outdoor festival stage framed by the snowy mountain peaks of the Alps. The lights come alive, […]
R&B superstar Gallant has had an amazing year, from being named a featured member of Forbes’ 30 under 30 to the release and subsequent Grammy nomination of his debut album Ology. Just last week, he released a new track titled “Cave Me In”, a collaboration with South Korean superstars Eric Nam and Tablo. In light […]
