Description
Book SynopsisThis collection reflects on the Seattle music scene of the late 1990s into the 2000s, documented through photography and personal stories as the world transitioned from celluloid to digital, grunge to indie. The book opens with a nod to a truly independent woman with a forward from Megan Jasper, Sub Pop Records C.E.O., for 25 years. The work is a pilgrimage back in time, a nostalgic trip for anyone who remembers their 20s, cherishes music or yearns for a time when nobody texted or had a camera in their pocket. This series transcends the boundaries of music or a single life story. It's about heeding your instincts. I was documenting my life. The musicians, promoters, and bouncers were my friends, and I went to see bands I enjoyed and places I could get in for free. I didn't know I was in the middle of something new.Holler's personal story is witness to an artist in her 20s photographing little-known bands who later defined a decade in music history - capturing live gigs, portraits, and the remnants and landscapes of a scene that was the formative stage for groups such as Death Cab for Cutie, Fleet Foxes, Interpol, Macklemore, Modest Mouse, The Gossip and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, along with Beck, Foo Fighters- Dave Grohl, Moby, Pearl Jam, The Posies, and R.E.M.
