Aaron Norcross, Jr. – Back Page Cafe, Lowell MA


2018 photo100 – #71

This one was captured in the now closed Back Page Cafe in Lowell in Feb. 2017. This one is a bit ‘grainier’ than I’d normally post but I like the angle and Aaron’s expression.

Rhiannon Giddens – 2018 Lowell Summer Music Series


2018 photo100 – #35

Wow. I was not familiar with her work before the show but, Wow… just WOW! Her repertoire ranges through blues, ‘old time music’, gospel and a whole lotta in-between. My personal fav. was her renditon of the Ethel Waters version of ‘Under a Harlem Moon’ – standing ‘O’ ladies and gentlemen!

Jonny Lang – 2011 Lowell Summer Music Series

Sorry for the lack of posts of late – things have been quite busy in my world.

This almost counts as a ‘throwback’ image but I thought it fit better into #MonoMonday. 😉

Jim Mouradian – RIP


2017 photo100 – #9

Jim Mouradian played bass for Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters but is better known as a master guitar builder, or luthier.

He succumb to a heart attack while waiting to perform an encore at a show on Saturday, Jan 14th. Jim was 66 years old.

I made this image of Jim in 2009 while performing with Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters at the Lowell Summer Music Series.

There are several memorials online:
