Gorgon City's photo diary from Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colarado
As they announce their 2017 world tour, North London garage producers Kye Gibbon and Matt Robson-Scott aka Gorgon City share a brilliant photo diary from their Red Rocks Amphitheatre show in Colarado.
The 2017 tour will see the duo play 17 shows from January through March in Mexico, Russia, Italy, Germany, Belgium and Denmark, before finishing up with several UK dates.
Listen to the Vaults-featuring single 'All Four Walls' while you check out their photo adventures, complete with commentary.
Grabbing an airport burrito! We're feeling pretty tired at this point as we hadn't slept much from the night before, so needed some guacamole based energy.
We arrived early to experience the venue during daylight. It was well worth it, the views are incredible. We checked out the museum too which explains how many dinosaur fossils have been found there. They have a T-Rex's jaw in there! Also I think it said they discovered the Brontosaurus there as well.
"In an emergency, your fire exits are here, and here".
This venue is literally breath-taking. Spent a pretty long time up here enjoying the views. If you're ever visiting Denver, you really should check this venue out.
Our amazing crew who make the show happen work their asses off everyday before we get there. Tom Cane (middle) is our midi tech who has helped design our rigs and is an absolute tech wizard. Tom Simister (right) is the drum tech and stage manager who saves us from dodgy situations on stage. Anna (left) is our FOH engineer who makes us sound perfect in any venue.
This us with the full band in the dressing room at Red Rocks. We were all super excited and bit nervous, we'd been at the venue all day watching the sunset, so the adrenaline was rushing and spirits were super hyped. Before we play any show, we always have about 15 minutes to ourselves, just the band in the dressing room to mentally prepare.
Josh Barry and Lulu James killing it on stage. The chemistry between them has developed so much over the past 2 or 3 years and now work together like clockwork. We really feel like a family now and we love performing together and having the time of our lives on and off stage.
This had to be the most amazing moment of the set. Our singer Josh Barry had the idea to get everyone to light up the sky with their phone or lighter. It really worked and turned into being a magical moment that we'll never forget. The amazing steep sloped venue added that awe factor to it as well.
Aaaaaaaand breathe.... We did this every show on the tour, end of the last song and we get a photo with the crowd. Great to show the grandkids. Big up Tugg the drummer, he's a proper don. (his hand also looks ENORMOUS!)
As you can see it is one of the best venues in the world!
