We are back at the Northampton Beer Festival this year as the backstage photographers! Snapping love music from stage side is amazing. Sure we miss the amazing photo ops stage front brings, but often we capture the hidden smiles, the set ups and the view the musicians see. Last year was sensational. You can catch it here. Live music and event photography is such fun to do. The different bands, the styles, the crowds and the atmosphere. Northampton Beer Festival opened today 19th May and ends on Sunday. We are there all festival long so be sure to check in for more images.

First on was ‘K.R.A.B’

Second band on V.H.S. Pirates

The third band was ‘Jono & The Uke Dealers’

Closing the first day of the festival was ‘The Drunken Mandem’

If you can get down to the festival I highly recommend you do. Local live music, local breweries, real ale and so much more. I adore that Northampton Beer Festival is so popular and each year it grows. Great atmosphere and so much more to do than just drink ale. Not that the ale isnt fantastic.

Right I am off for Day 2. Catch the blog about it all later.
