Ok, this was taken a while back, probably 6 or so months ago...but I finally got a chance to post these today! I was reminded by a birthday greeting from Joe Greenetz that I hadn't showed him these shots yet! I am buddies with a bunch of guys in Sherwood, and they let me hang out with them backstage, and on, during their show. We all went to college together, and I have followed them as best I could since graduation. They are always  SO fun to photograph. Joe is one of the most animated, spirited drummers I have ever seen, and they play with so much passion; needless to say it was an AMAZING show. Oh, and they sound great too. Check out their newest record if you haven't already. Oh, and Better Than Ezra rocked out too!!

If you haven't bought or even heard some of the tunes from Until June, check them out. We shot photos near downtown LA for their new album coming out shortly. We waited all afternoon for the perfect light and took quite a while setting up their instruments for this shoot. I shot these guys before about 3 years ago, and now, with their new hair and new sound, these new pics show off their new look.
