This past Sunday, I had the incredible experience of heading down to San Diego with two of my favorite people, Josey and Pamela, to meet up with up and coming rockers The Material for both a promo shoot and to shoot a hometown show they were performing. Turns out the show was none other than My American Heart’s final show. I was really stoked because fellow photographer Ali Carcache just got me into MAH and I’d been hearing so much on Tumblr about My American Heart’s final shows and I couldn’t help but think how amazing it would be to get a little piece of rock history shooting a band’s final show. Well, of the five bands, I shot three—The Material (who I was there to shoot,) Misdelphia (who I shot at The Troubadour a month earlier with Cinematic Sunrise,) and of course My American Heart. Thanks to All Access from The Material I was able to get a lot of unique angles and awesome backstage shots during this amazing show. If you get the chance, check out The Material and Misdelphia—two amazing bands coming up out of SD! Enjoy!

This show was off the hook. First and foremost thanks to Frosty for pulling it all together at the last minute for me to do this show at all. This show was super exciting and all new to me with the exception of the wonderful Mr. Wentz who performed with Cinematic Sunrise. I knew the backstory of Craig Owens and Chiodos a bit, and it was cool to get to see a little more playful side in CinSun’s music. I also really dug on Sleeping with Sirens and Misdelphia, both bands with bright futures. I hope I get to see more of both of them in the future (keep your eyes peeled this week for pictures of Misdelphia from My American Heart’s last show in San Diego last night! :D) Mark Rose was a nice little breakdown in the middle with his acoustic set and of course Jonny Craig delivered with Tides of Man before him and backing his set. The night was full of awesome music and great performances, I hope you enjoy!
