Post a picture of your band!!

[Aran]

Did a search and nothing came up that I could see!

Just happened to have some pictures done over the weekend by an out of work photographer which I thought looked quite cool so decided to share...

Would love to see some of yours too...

Great idea for a thread!

Band photo's are always a bit tricky and sort of a pain to do. Here's one that we did for Stay Tuned a couple of years ago....

[Trey Young]

Fun idea Aran. I don't have any professional shots to share, but we do have one candid shot and one semi candid shot that I think are pretty good. Our bass player missed the dress code memo in the first shot, guess his golf game ran late. I'm hoping we can get an endorsement deal from the second shot ...

I wish i could !. The photos of my band disappeared over 40 years back. Unfortunately they were also the ones taken at the venue where we opened for Bill Monroe & the boys in 1966. BM's Banjo player at the time,Lamar Grier, could be seen sitting at the side of the stage during our 2nd spot,

This'd be the Moss Pickers... Louisiana's Southernmost String Band!

[John Rosett]

Here's a shot of my jazz group. The fact that we're all wearing black shirts is purely a coincidence.

Here's a picture of a band I used to be in.

[Jim Garber]

A couple of bands I was in from way back. Park bench shot of Wonderbeans was from late 1970s and Tunesmith from around mid-1980s.

Hey Jim, is that Ken Bloom playing the zither in the second photo?

[Strado Len]

Fred's Mobile Homes

This is a picture from a contra dance we played last October. It was a balmy 40 degrees in the old barn the dance was held at. Note the little heaters on the floor in front of us. Billy Mathews on fiddle, James Eyman on mandola, Christine Breen on the banjo and me, Paul Breen on guitar. I think this was the coldest gig yet. We called ourselves Willy and the North Polecats.

Is that Larry Cohen on bass?

[Jim Garber]

Hey Jim, is that Ken Bloom playing the zither in the second photo?

Yes, it is. And the fiddler on the end is Sam Zygmuntowicz, master violin maker.

[Charles E.]

Here is my favorite photo of the SSB, taken with an old, wooden cased, large format, poloroid camera. It was at a music retreat in Bath NC. I am the one holding a 1932 National Triolian tenor guitar.

[Strado Len]

Jason:

Yes that is Larry Cohen on bass in the photo of Fred's Mobile Homes. Other group members are Beth Mead, banjo; Peter Lorch, guitar; and me, George Abramson on mandolin and guitar.

[Charles E.]

Patrick, that is an absolutly wonderful photo of your group. Kudo's to the photographer for capturing the moment.

[Jill McAuley]

Great thread and great photos everyone!

Cheers,

I'm the guy with the mandolin.

Great photo, Mandolin Holm... for my info: does barfota mean barefoot?

[Jessbusenitz]

This is our group playing at my cousins wedding (I'm on the mando). the 2 on the right our my brothers and the banjo player is just a friend.

[Chip Booth]

Spare Change in Ketchum, Idaho, mid July this year. Yep, that's hail.

[Ed Goist]

Man, this is such a great thread! I'm impressed...Lookin' good folks! Keep those pics coming.
P.S.: Holm - I love all bands that have more mandolins than shoes! Bravo!
