Dom Brown & Phil Spalding Blue to Brown

In January I was lucky enough to shoot Dom Brown’s band Blue to Brown at the Swindon Arts Centre. As a kid growing up just outside Birmingham in the 80’s Duran Duran were the local boys made good and I was a big fan. The original lead guitarist Andy Taylor left the band for the second time in 2006 to be replaced by Dom.
