0203 – The Breeders (Live @ The Commodore 2015) Album

Tucked underneath my beard, I still managed to keep the hidden camera pointed towards the stage clearly enough to capture the legendary set from when The Breeders toured the anniversary of their Last Splash record at The Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver in 2015.  I didn’t know cameras weren’t allowed until I got in there…and given […]Read More

0202 – The Pit (Live @ The Railway Club 2015)

These champions!  The twin badasses in heavy-rock/grunge-band The Pit filled in a bill with Blackout Lights opening up for Aztec returning to The Railway Club in 2015 – both openers on short notice, coming through like complete heroes at the last minute and crushing their sets for a crowd full of thirsty beer-swizzlin’ music-fans.  It […]Read More

0201 – Modern Day Poets Album II

Word on the street is that the Modern Day Poets might be finished…but the legacy & memories live on!  If you check out their last post on social media, it’s a bit cryptic to say the least…but it’s not without some hope either.  It implies that if the band itself doesn’t carry on, that they’ll […]Read More

0200 – Jer @ SBS Album VI

Recovering from the local craft beer festival this year here last night in Ottawa, and taking a Sunday off to celebrate my wife’s birthday – so here’s some shots of my mug throughout the sleepingbagstudios journey to keep you company whilst I’m away for twenty-four hours or so.  Probably less…y’all know me…Read More

0198 – Lung Flower Music Video Shoot

Absolutely one of the most badass experiences we’ve ever had.  Filming sludge-grunge band Lung Flower two days prior to packing up the studio in BC in 2016 to move to Ottawa, Ontario was INSANE – talk about a tight schedule!  We filmed their video for “Beyond Burnt Out” and found a perfect abandoned shack in […]Read More

0197 – The Penske File Album II

Out of Burlington, Ontario – The Penske File has a brand-new record called Salvation that has just been released in 2018…go get yourself some of that!  Awesome to see James, Alex, and Travis still kicking ass in the music-scene…The Penske File generates a ton of well-deserved buzz every time they put something out or plug […]Read More

0196 – Stone Poets Album III

There’s a brand-new album out there right now from Vancouver-based folk-band Stone Poets, just released & called Smoke And Mirrors – so what better time than now to revisit our time with the band way back in 2013 with a few leftover shots from their time at sleepingbagstudios?  Enjoy!Read More

0195 – Kristia Di Gregorio Album III

More shots from our time with the wonderfully expressive & artistic musical-goddess Kristia Di Gregorio from her time on SBS Live This Week alongside her husband/music-partner Tony.  I’ve said it a ton and I’ll say it again – these two are beautiful people inside & out – an absolute pleasure to have in the studio […]Read More

0194 – Trev Conkey

This guy!  Used to work with Trev way back in the day, right before SBS was formed.  Even though we both knew music was a part of our lives, it would have been impossible to predict that it would go on to dominate our futures in our own different ways.  Of course with me, it […]Read More

DaltonRobinson

The cross-continental duo of DaltonRobinson have a brand-new record out & available now – their official debut album, called Worlds Apart.  Though they live in opposite corners of the globe with Michael Dalton living in Australia and Rory Robinson living in Ireland, they pushed past the timezone differences and found a way to make their […]Read More
