You Me At Six have been a band that I’ve cut my teeth on for years. They were one of the first bands I ever photographed and filmed, one of the first bands I became friends with and one of the first bands to give me passes to shows and give me the freedom to try things out, even though I wasn’t very good!

Tomorrow they play their biggest ever headline show at Manchester Arena and I thought this was a perfect opportunity to delve into my archive to dig up some photos from the past 8 years of shooting them. Be warned: some terrible terrible photos in here, thank god for progress.
