Kris Ulrich At MTelus

This was a little bit of an unexpected performance.  I was down at the MTelus this past Thursday for a show by The Sheepdogs.  I was chatting away on the phone when suddenly the lights went down a little earlier than I had anticipated.  One of the guitarists for Boy Golden, Kris Ulrich, had hit the stage for a quick set.  Luckily, my camera is already prepared so I jumped into the pit and got to shooting.  There's a comforting simplicity to just an artist and his guitar.  Everything just felt smooth while he was up on stage for the short amount of time he was there.  After serving others as a touring musician, he released a solo album of his own, Braemar Avenue, January 2021, back in June of last year.  The songs were nice, and he was full of gracious things to say about the city and its fans.  That warmed the audience to him and he then earned their attention with some great songs.  The first photograph was taken at f/3.2, 1/250sec, ISO 3200 ay 39mm.  Here are a few more photographs of his performance.
