Mo Pleasure (Earth, Wind & Fire)
Dave Swift (Jools Holland)
Georgia and the Vintage Youth
Joe Slater
Professor Dan Reinstein
Denise Leigh
Sound for Sight is raising funds and awareness towards Sightsavers’ work eliminating the World’s leading cause of preventable blindness, trachoma.
Trachoma is a bacterial infection linked to inadequate water and sanitation and passed on by flies. It is referred to as ‘neglected tropical diseases’ and can be prevented and ultimately eliminated entirely.
The Sound for Sight audience will be taken on a spectacular sensory experience during the show that has been carefully curated by Sound for Sight Founder, Laura Westcott and ‘Mo Pleasure’ the former Music Director of Earth, Wind & Fire.
Charlotte Kelly, Soul II Soul
Charlotte rose to fame in the mid 1990s as one of the lead singers of British R&B group Soul II Soul, with hit songs “Back to Life” and “Keep on Movin”.
Charlotte was born blind at birth with no sight at all in her left eye and virtually none in her right eye.
“I am very excited and delighted to perform at Sound for Sight because being blind from birth, sound is one of the most important tools we possess as blind and visually impaired people. So, treatment and eradication of blindness is a blessing for the growth on the human experience.” – Charlotte Kelly
Denise Leigh
Denise made her operatic debut in 2003 by winning Channel 4’s Operatunity and playing the role of Gilda in Verdi’s Rigoletto at the London Coliseum.
Since then, Denise has sung all over the world and was honoured to headline the London 2012 Paralympic opening ceremony.
Both Denise and her husband Stefan (who will accompany Denise on piano) are visually impaired with a visually impaired son.
“The treatment and eradication of blindness, in all it’s forms, is a cause very close to our hearts and we are delighted to be performing at Sound for Sight to help fund research and treatment.” Denise and Stefan
Mo Pleasure
Mo is a renowned multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer. Mo began his professional music career playing bass guitar with Ray Charles. In 1993, Mo became a member of the legendary group Earth, Wind & Fire, and ascended to become the band’s musical director from 1994-2001.
Mo has performed with Stevie Wonder, Nile Rogers, Bette Midler, Roberta Flack, Amy Winehouse to name a few… He also played keys for Michael Jackson on his final comeback tour at the O2.
Dave Swift
Dave joined Jools Holland’s Rhythm and Blues Orchestra in 1991 as his resident bass player, and has played with him ever since! He is one of the UK’s finest, high-profile bass players and boasts a musician’s portfolio that is second to none, having played for an array of renowned artists, from George Benson and Chaka Khan to Eric Clapton and Paul Simon.
Professor Dan Reinstein
Dan is a pioneer in laser eye surgery and Founded the London Vision Clinic. He is also a very talented saxophonist and often accompanies Mo Pleasure at London’s iconic 606 Club.
Georgia & The Vintage Youth
A 22 year old Essex Girl with big blonde hair, a spine-tingling voice and a master of the retro jazz/swing style of music that is both vintage and fresh (hence the name of the band).
Georgia’s sound is contagious and subconsciously gets you tapping your feet, whilst her ballads are stripped back allowing Georgia’s strong and iconic vocal to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end.
Joe Slater
A 22-year-old lad from Liverpool who blurs the lines between Blues, Soul and Rock ‘n’ Roll whilst taking inspiration from The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen and Oasis.
“With his raspy voice, perfect pitch and soulful delivery, Slater is unquestionably destined for stardom….” London Hollywood
Don’t miss what promises to be an extraordinary night for a very worthy cause on World Sight Day.
I had the unique opportunity to photograph the Missouri Symphony's "Sound Bites" event at Cooper's Ridge this past weekend. The event paired food offerings from Peachtree Catering & Events with music from Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Conductor Wilbur Lin led the orchestra. Violinist Rachell Ellen Wong flew in from Manhattan to play the solos. Please support the Missouri Symphony's mission to bring classical music to our community. You can donate directly via their website at themosy.org/. Also, plan on attending their new summer event, the Firefly Music Festival, which runs from June 14 to July 24.

A commission I had, to design and make free-standing hardware for a permanent, interactive sound installation for Cleethorpes Academy, North East Lincolnshire, UK.
The hardware consists of 6 infra-red sensor units and 1 lectern that houses an iPad.
The sensor units pick up and track movement. This is all linked to special iPad software created by David Stevens and Simon Desorgher.
The equipment will predominantly be used to aid music and sound lessons and performances. The interactive system is great for children, as they don’t need dexterity in order to get involved and play with sound.
天氣不是太好，前往Milford Sound的前方烏雲籠罩，沿途的草坪不只飼養著綿羊，還有大群的鹿，有的公鹿長著大大的鹿茸。
彎彎曲曲的山路中途有個叫做Mirror Lake(鏡子湖)的地方，走進去一探究竟，KIWI們很逗趣的將"Mirror Lake"的牌子倒過來放，在水面上就會看到正向的Mirror Lake。接下來是聲名遠播的Homer Tunnel(赫默隧道)，這是一個非常壯闊的工程，在巨大的雪山下開出一條長約1270km的隧道，工程興建於1935年，完成於1953年，耗時十幾年，遠遠的看就像是雪山裡的一個小嘴巴，有些可愛也有些危險，偶而會滴下些山泉水，赫默隧道是單向通車，所以車子常常需要在隧道口等待10~15分鐘，在隧道口會看到一個特殊景象，就是人們將車子停好，紛紛下車拍照，等到雖道口的號誌變成可以通車，大家才又紛紛上車啟動。
這晚落腳山中小木屋Milford Sound Lodge，大多是4人一間的上下舖，全木造的交誼廳非常舒適，讓人想賴著不走。晚上的室友有一位來自美國加州的女孩，她在紐西蘭北島已工作6年，隔天早上跟我們一樣會去米佛峽灣Milford Sound搭船瀏覽風景。
隔天的天氣依舊不好，甚至下起大雨，不過島是讓在船上的我們見識另一個奇觀，沿途的瀑布都變得巨大無比！船長們還會調皮地將船開心瀑布中，讓遊客體驗一下瀑布沖刷的刺激感~也因為天氣不好十分寒冷讓我們有機會見到在岸邊棲息的野生黃眉毛國王企鵝！也算是不幸中的大幸~~

Playing with sound and paint.
All I needed was a speaker, amp, sound trigger, flash mounted on a tripod, Gorillapod, laptop, some paint, white plastic sheeting and a dark room!
Stand back...
This image is from our band practice space, I was getting ready to sing and needed a little bit of echo for the next song. It just so happens that the echo is number 7 on my voice processor.
This was shot in RAW and processed in Linux using RawThereapy.
Another nice spot driving towards Milford Sounds.

Largely fruitless experiments in the 1920s and 30s in detecting inbound enemy aircraft using giant concrete mirrors and bowls to reflect and collect the sound. Then radar was invented, and the rest is history.
