285 memories

In honour and memory of it's closing, here's some photos I took at my first 285 Kent show.
An unofficial CMJ 2012 showcase featuring Ryan Hemsworth, Deniro Farrar and Main Attrakionz.  
Hectic stuff. Good times.

Bad ass edgy folk. from Melbourne. Is that a thing?
Whatever, if it wasn’t already it is now. 

Another CMJ highlight. Her lyrics dude. Guh. Soo raaaad.

Because he is the most punk poet.
So many emotions and mosh pits. 

music video of the day: "Compliment Your Soul" by Dan Croll

 23-year-old Liverpool based lad leading a five-piece indie-electro-folk act.

I saw him on the subway but was too scared to say anything.
Then I saw him perform at Mercury Lounge and I couldn't stop smiling.
