Nice Shooting!

Damo Suzuki – the former vocalist of the cult german band “CAN”, either the son or the father of psychedelic kraut rock.

The concert of the international project “Damo Suzuki and I Droog Moi Gruzovik” was within the festival of Japanese culture “Tanabata”. The shooting was on the next day after it. The star behaved very decently and shy. Damo is a very calm and kind person. “Gruzoviki” surprised with their thoughtfulness and calmness, too.

Music is international and is able to unite people. But how to unite such bright and different characters in photography? We shot a gang that had been operating in, let’s say, Moscow in the beginning of the XX century. Also we paid attention to the single portraits of everyone involved. We got something evoked by the novels of Boris Akunin.

Damo was also shot in the national look and in the style of the 40’s.

As for the result – you are to judge.
