Photoshoot with Rick Brantley

I really dig this guy's music. I got the opportunity to foto Rick. He is a blast to be around and I think I bring something out in him. He is quite funny and cool and tough and all of that wrapped up into one. His music is much more mature than what I expected. I hope you like the photos but please go check out Rick and his music.

Rick Brantley

From rickbrantley.com: If you’ve been wondering if rock ‘n roll has truly been put to death by today’s fabricated, widget-like pop stars “popping” out of the woodworks, rest assured that you will find the phoenix not only rising out of but bursting forth from Rick Brantley.

Brantley, barely 21, writes, plays, and sings his Southern angst filled rock n’ roll with the heart, soul and body of a young Bruce Springsteen or Kris Kristofferson. Brantley’s songs address the same timeless issues that his protégés addressed in the 60’s and 70’s: the confusion and longing inherent in lovelorn youth, political and racial injustice, and a search for meaning in a world that offers harsh judgments but few solutions. “The issues are the same today as they were when Lennon, Dylan, and Robbie Robertson of The Band (a few of his influences) were writing about them,” Rick says, “and we are still divided over them.”
