JEFF the Brotherhood - 1.25.2012
I'm not a music critic, I can barely form words without having an acute panic attack. So i'll simply say this: JEFF the Brotherhood rule. Not only do my friends and I constantly have their albums on play, but Jake and Jamin are two of the coolest dudes I know. And two of the funnest to photograph. Did I mention that last year, Leon pushed his flight to London back two days just so he wouldn't miss their Antone's show? And that JTB was the first band I introduced him to that he actually liked? I deserved a medal for that one.
Anyway, JTB have come through Austin like 50 times in three years, most recently this week on their tour with The Kills - view my live shots from the show here! I met up with the guys afterwards and snapped some polaroids around the venue/their tourbus. It's actually a converted schoolbus, which i'd say is only slightly smaller than my apartment. This was initially just going to be a blog post with the polaroids I snapped on Wednesday, but I've decided to also throw in some older portraits I have taken of the guys over the past few years. Kind of like my own "Chronicles of JEFF the Brotherhood". So yeah, these shots have been put in chronological order, dating back to one of the first times I saw JTB play (Valentine's Day at Emo's)! Enjoy.
