Photography: Exploring the Underground Music Scene

Written and Photographed by Ryan Lee

Every band has a starting point before their breakthrough. The Beatles first performed at the Jacaranda, a pub in Liverpool. Green Day frequented 924 Gilman St., a 500-person venue in Berkeley, California. Weezer
first formed and played in a garage. But what does that starting point look like? Here’s a glimpse into the underground scene at the Windmill Brixton: a 150-person venue nestled in a residential neighbourhood.

Bands featured, with their Instagram handles: Newbuild (@newbuild.band), Civil Partnership (@civilpartnership), and Dog Saints (@dogsaintsdogsaints).
