The House Crew & Behind The Scenes
In House: Caroline & Joe, Johanna & Lucas, John [Filming + Live Edits], Sandra, Keith, Daragh – [Sound], Colm [Interviews + Edits], Doxie [Catering], Coylene, Julie – [Everywhere], Jason [Photography] & up the way a bit, Jonathan [Poster + Motion Graphics]. Thanks too to Robbie & Elaine at Chestnut Restaurant for sending over a few tastie treats.
Repair services also carried out, literally.
Looking at the set up and restrictions in place, I hadn’t expected or assumed I’d be photographing at this year’s Secret Song.
For the brief moments when I found myself alone with each musician, I’d be switching frantically between soaking in that moment and making the photographs.
This was my first time meeting & seeing Varo, Saint Sister & Paul Noonan.
Good hearts every single one. X
See you at the next one.
