Mayday Parade | "Welcome to Sunnyland" Tour | 10-4-18

October 4, 2018

Mayday Parade in Concert

Iron City | Birmingham, Alabama | October 4th, 2018

Recap + Concert Photography

Birmingham, Alabama played host to the second night of Mayday Parade’s “Welcome to Sunnyland” tour as the band performed at Iron City on October 4th. The Tallahassee, Florida based group launched the tour to support their sixth studio album “Sunnyland”, which was released in June of 2018 on Rise Records. A lively and youthful audience filled Iron City to check out Mayday Parade in the headlining position. This was my second time to see Mayday Parade in concert with the first one also taking place at Iron City. Like that first show, this one was full of energy, light and color. Lead singer Derek Sanders was all over the stage and gave the crowd a top notch performance. If the “Welcome to Sunnyland” tour comes to your city, I’d highly recommend checking it out for what would be a really aces evening.

Show 012: Lucy Dacus | Saturn Birmingham | Birmingham, Alabama | February 4th, 2019⠀⁣⠀
⠀⁣⠀
It's been a rainy and gray week along with a lull between shows. I normally don't have a problem with those conditions, but, hey, too much of it demands a little color be brought into the equation. ⁣⠀

Gouge Away put on a killer opening set in anticipation of Russian Circles' performance at Saturn. Definitely check them out if you get a chance to see them live, and check out their music on Deathwish, Inc.⠀

Show 015: Many Rooms (Opening for Copeland) | Saturn Birmingham | Birmingham, Alabama | February 13th, 2019⠀
⠀
I nearly forgot to share a shot from this great opening set Many Rooms put on at Saturn earlieri n the week. Heavy blue is usually something a lot of photographers try to avoid, but, sometimes, the color scheme fits the performance quite well. Check out Many Rooms' music on Other People Records.⠀
