live concert and gig photography from the hottest shows in London
Gibson Slash

Lenny Kravitz is one of thise rather unfortunate artists whose music is so closely associates withe the late 90’s early nineties that he’s had a tough time getting press and airplay for his recent records, many of which have been as good as the likes of  “Mama Said” and “Circus”. That said his live performances have always been a sell out and tonight’s sold out show at the O2 Brixton Academy was a very hot and sweaty affair on the hottest day of the year. Lenny Kravitz performs at the O2 Brixton Academy on the 1st of J

Despite it being almost being 25 years since he released his first record Lenny Kravitz looks remarkably similar to as he did in the mid nineties and puts on a highly energetic and enjoyable performance.  In the songs that I photographed he preformed numbers from his latest album “It’s Time for a Revolution” as well as classic numbers such as “It Aint Over Till its Over”. I have to say that by the fouth number became quite nostaligic bringing back many happy memories form the early nineties. Lenny Kravitz certainly is worth checking out live and if you liked his older material you may try before you buy on Soptify, I am listing to Love Revlution whilst writing this which is bloody good!
