Easy Street West Seattle's latest live event features photography from the neighborhood's own rock photographer David Belisle and tunes from the singular, moody Tiny Vipers (Jesy Fortino).


West Seattle resident David Belisle was tour photographer and personal assistant to R.E.M. from 2001-2008. His photo journal of the band, Hello, was our best-selling book of 2008. David has photographed cover art for Tiny Vipers, Yeah Yeahs Yeahs, the Blakes, Mudhoney and the Presidents of the USA, and his work has been featured in Rolling Stone, Spin, Mojo, Q Magazine, The Stranger, Seattle Weekly, Village Voice and numerous other publications. Currently, he has been touring as photographer for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

The show, "Musicians and Landscapes," will feature many of Belisle's photos of prominent musicians, including Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, R.E.M., Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Band of Horses, Patti Smith, Eddie Vedder, Fleet Foxes and more. And, as the title implies, there will also be a generous number of landscapes from his travels with these bands.

The exhibition starts at seven. Tiny Vipers plays at nine. Gotta assume there will be priced-to-drink libations on hand, as there have been at previous Easy Street events.
