Sometimes everything just comes together… Black & White photography, deep reportage, a keen eye and access to one of the best garage bands out there… Owen Richards brilliantly captured The Computers over the Summer during their stint at Reading. Can’t get enough of the tattoos, matching suits and carefully coiffed hair. There is something timeless about these images and we hope enjoy you them as much as we have.

Okay, so we’re not breaking any new ground here.. A lot has been written about Mr. Ernest Greene A.K.A Washed Out already. What we are excited about is that newly signed Hell Gate photographer Owen Richards has some fetching portraits of him taken in June, view the gallery here. The rest of Owen’s images will be on The Hell Gate site next week along with his bio. We are very pleased to have him on board. Truth be told we have been listening to a lot of Washed Out cause it’s good- Eyes Be Closed be our Summer Friday jam.
