The Timid Roosevelts | Photo Gallery

The Timid Roosevelts play loose and lovely lo-fi indie pop that I go nuts for. They were 1 member down tonight (he was at Metallica) so I'll have to catch them again when they play as a full ensemble. I grabbed a copy of their demo CD and I'm definitely picking up hints of Rilo Kiley and Sleater-Kinney. I'll be keeping an eye out for when they release their debut LP. When I finally get my band up-and-running, this will be one of the bands we play with. Don't mess with them... they know Tae Kwon Do.

The band brought their own lighting that they clipped onto the mic stands, which worked out pretty well. It occasionally cast some funky shadows and/or overexposed their faces, but nothing too extreme. Exposure was made at f/1.4 and between 1/125 and 1/250. Again, film is TRI-X 400 pushed 1 stop.
