Dylan Earl / The Lemon Trees at Bootleg Theater, LA | Music Photography

The Bootleg Theater was the place to be on 10/10/15 as three very talented groups played to a packed house.  First up was Dylan Earl then the la locals, The Lemon Trees and closing out the night with Daniel Romano and the Trilliums.

Dylan Earl is a cowboy suited fella with roots in Arkansas and friends of the ridiculously amazing Tyrannosaurus Chicken.  I liked his cowboy hat and easy grin immediately and dug his real feeling brand of country, none of that pop shit here, real country, sad songs sung with beauty and power.  His backing band looked remarkably like the members of Daniel Romano and the Trilliums. Remarkably so.

The Lemon Trees helped me set up a shoot and I ended up loving everything they did that the test became a final and this image was born.

I got to catch a bit of their hysterically funny and smooth beautiful harmonies backstage and look forward to seeing them onstage at another show.

While they played the band from Dylan Earl were switching off twinsies and getting into character for the main event of the night, Daniel Romano and The Trilliums.
