This new edit of an old favorite taken at the V Club in Huntington WV on June 16th 2016 featuring Speedy Creek's own Colter Wall. Colter opened up for band from Texas that evening. That Texas band brought a top of line lighting rig with them that allowed me to slip in and manipulate the light around Colter, illuminating him in a particularly haunting way. There were around 30 people in the room on this faithful Thursday night in Huntington.
25 of those people left when Colter completed his set.
He stole the show and blew the crowd away thus I'm dubbing this image "The Opener."
This photo was the first of many images that have been featured by Rolling Stone.
A first for him and a first for me.
All proceeds from this purchase will be raised to benefit the NIVA Emergency Relief Fund.
NIVA (National Independent Venue Association) assembled the Implementation Task Force and is working with the Small Business Administration as they promulgate regulations . They ensure the emergency relief is dispersed as Congress intended and that the instructions and process to apply for grants ensure that the process is implemented accurately, fairly and as expediently as possible.
Since it could take many weeks, even months for the funding to flow, the NIVA Emergency Relief Fund, with The Giving Back Fund as its 501(c)3 fiscal sponsor, continues to raise money to assist the venues at greatest risk of permanently going under as we wait for the grants to be issued.
Your purchase of this image will help bridge the gap for some of our favorite venues across the country.
