HowClosely video blog

I got a camera for a present a few years ago and since then I've taken a ton of footage from the local shows I frequent. I do it for fun and because there's usually a song I want to hear again. I put some of these videos on youtube for the bands and whoever else to see. I'll be adding new and older videos later and I'm thinking I may need a new camera. http://www.youtube.com/HowClosely

Here are a few
Joy In Red

Sawteeth McTweedy and the Particles "Wings Wine & Cigarettes"

Beloved Binge "Vacuum"

Eberhardt "Curse"

Dawn Dineen - The Ghostly Apple Tree

Before you begin click on the player below to listen to "The Ghostly Apple Tree" performed live at The 307 Knox Salon.


Back in October Dawn Dineen and the Cue made their way to Durham, on tour for Dawn's new release The Ghostly Apple Tree. It's a beautiful and poetic album which Dawn Recorded mostly by herself in her bedroom overlooking D.C.
We were all amazed by their performance that night and I was lucky to get a CD before they left. I shot two videos which came out very dark but the music is still amazing. The second video is called "Mystery Novel" from her previous record Wound Check. I bought this record off of iTunes but it's cheaper if you get it through CD Baby.
