No one: Performers when they spot the EFG camera in the photo pit: 🫵

Beyond activism and culture, Black radio serves as a community hub, connecting listeners to local events, resources, and news that mainstream outlets might overlook.

The vibraphonist, composer and jazz-funk pioneer helped inspire the neo-soul movement, and his best-known song was sampled over 100 times.

The layoffs come after 200 Sesame Workshop employees announced they want to form a union.

Support the arts outchea! Fuck them guidelines.

Two years ago, I kind of accidentally photographed my first concert. I joined Back Alley Brass Band at their Mardi Gras show to photograph the T-shirt I designed for them. At some point, I ended up turning my camera towards them and shooting their whole set.

We're not going to "stick to design" either. Art in all its forms is resistance. That's the business we're in and we're 10 toes down.

🤷🏽‍♀️

Keep making art, my friends. Creation and imagination are acts of defiance when the status quo is conformity and destruction.

As a graphic design & photography business owned by a musician, we see a clear need for these resources in our community and we're helping in the way that we can with the strengths & insights we have to offer. It takes genuine connection and cooperation to put KC back on the map.

This is exactly why @efg.xyz exists in the performing arts sector the way we do (with a crowdfunded assistance program to make our services affordable for artists and nonprofits).

This is what we mean when we say our ultimate goal is to sustain our performing arts community. We're proud to be a part of this movement. vinestbrewing.com/blog/3akc

Music is food for the heart and soul

The arts redeem humanity.

Thank a musician today. They make the world a better place.

//Real talk, being a musician is exhausting. No one knows how much work goes into it until you do it. If you care about a band or artist, buy their music. Buy their merch. Tell them that you appreciate them. Support your local scene.

New sticker day! 🎶

If you see this, post a concert pic you took. [Sunu (a Kansas City Afrobeats band) at Mardi Gras 2023. Local talent, local venue, local love 💕]

I'm gonna make an effort to not just lurk on here like I do everywhere else. Y'all can't get to know me if I'm invisible. So here's a few more photos I've taken & merch I've designed. I owe a lot in my career to these particular people giving me a chance. @efg.xyz wouldn't exist without them.

For my new followers, I'm a concert photographer, graphic designer, and musician in a community orchestra. Art and music are my heart and soul. I own @efg.xyz, where I do graphic design and photography for performing arts. I mostly stay in Kansas City, but I've worked with clients all over.

We might have a thing for brass. 🎺💕 #concertphotography
