This festival is rocking and it’s just beginning to dawn on me how hard it is for one person to cover this much music. Adam Bagerski from Nemo Design is my sidekick in all of this. Having been in the right place at the right time he was enrolled by KEXP to be the official KEXP blog photographer. Last night kicked off with a great party at the Ace Hotel after the Cat Power show. I spent some time chatting with Portland’s TV glamour girl Storm Large and other local luminaries before heading up to the Crystal Ballroom to catch part of Black Joe Lewis‘ set. If you haven’t come across this Austin TX-based bluesman you are missing out. Completely amazing. Here’s the Video.
