News & Pics : ASIWYFA

Though news of And So I Watch You From Afar‘s UK album release on 14 April was reported on Monday, I can reveal their eponymously-titled debut gets a southern soil airing on 3 May in Whelans. Not only that but the Causeway post-rockers will be joined by good mates Maybeshewill, whom they supported extensively on a 2008 UK tour.
Aaaah! :)

So high time to post these pics, I think: ASWIYFA rolled in from two nights in Cork and Galway for a Sunday finale in Whelans and I snaffled them before soundcheck for cameraderie. Thanks be to chipper windows, beacons of light in the winter gloom.
A few hours later they were on-stage for their second ever Dublin show with Club AC30 and a storming set it was too. I have a feeling there won’t be as much room for dancing at the front from now on…

Welcome back to the old photo format btw. I like this one better :)

    Hey there Nay, nice pics. The B&W works well. They’re really crisp for night shots. Were you using any flash for these? Or was it solely from available light and the aforementioned light from chipper windows etc. ?
    I really like the 2nd shot for some reason, even though the lead guy is looking out of shot (possibly even because of that).

    I finally posted a couple of my own shots over on my site at last (if you’re interested?). Curious as to what you’d make of them.
