Wow! Incredible work! I would love her to photograph some of my magic. Thank you for sharing, it’s not often we get great behind the scenes glimpses of artists we admire. Thank you for sharing!

Ya, Piper is super talented and has shot a wide range of indie artists. She also does some pretty great behind-the-scenes storytelling in the book. Thanks for checking it out!

This was a fantastic interview. I was not familiar with Piper's work, but looking at these excerpts, I see that her photos vibrantly capture the feeling of the the late 90s/early aughts indie scene. I like the combo of images captured in the moment mixed with creatively staged pics.

Glad you dug it! She has a great eye for indie rock photography, for sure. And she’s shot some true legends.

Such a fun read. As someone who shoots a lot of shows, I loved hearing her insights. The Strummer anecdote is priceless.
