Jammin’ Java
Last summer was the first year for the Fresh Artists Summer Concert Series at Tysons Corner Center. This collection of musicians was put together by 94.7 Fresh FM . Overall it really helped to kick off all the festivities at the new elevated Plaza. Each performance was an exciting display of talent from the musicians. The crowds really responded by attending and enthusiastically participating in the performances. One of the most energetic acts from last year was AJ Smith who opened of Lindsey Sterling in one of the most attended performances of the whole series. There is no doubt that he introduced himself to a LOT of new fans that day.

I was really happy when he contacted me about the photos that I made of him and his bandmates that day. It turns out that like me, he is from the DC area, and would be coming back into town to perform at Jammin’ Java, one of the best local venues for live music. I offered to come out to get more photos of the band as they played for friends, and played some new compositions from this talented songwriter. Because I did not want to get in the way of the crowd during the performance, I came during their sound check earlier in the day, and was able to get some awesome photos of AJ and his band!
They worked really well together in just getting all their settings right for the show. The band sounded great, and the lighting/video backdrop that they had on stage really showed their professionalism. It was inspiring to see the effort and teamwork they put into their music, and I am sure grew their fan base even more after this night. I hope to get the chance to photograph them again!
