For a while, I’ve been contemplating a Sleeper Studios blog and have put it off for far too long. Thankfully, David Stump (Vestigial Crow - Vocals), gave me the extra moral support I needed to get started.
Often, I’m bummed about only posting one or two photos on Instagram from a shoo, then never looking through the pictures again. So, the goal is to showcase photo sets instead of only seeing a fraction of photos taken. Although Music oriented, the Sleeper blog won’t exclusively be dedicated music either! Since Sleeper Studios is an independent contractor, you’ll get to see much more variety on here than you will on any other social media platform. That means all sorts of Portraits, Weddings/Couples, Live Events, Myna Bird Studio Updates (Sleeper Studio’s Brother), Products, Commercial Work and even Photos from my random adventures.
Since David helped give me a push, the first photos you’ll see are of his band, Vestigial Crow. It was their first show too! Most of the music is written by founding member and guitarist, Irvin Smith. Jay Beckstead joins along on drums, and David Stump writes and performs vocals. Much of the lyrical content comes from the darkest points of David’s life. I’m super glad to see how far he’s gotten and is using the ugly in his life to create something beautiful. It’s great to finally see these guys perform.
Here’s some of my favorite photos from their set!
