I went out with Mainland for a few days in support of the Marianas Trench “Hey You Guys” Tour. Being their second tour ever as the Mainland project, it was to fun to witness the waves of new fans made after each city’s high energy set. Can’t wait to see what happens next for them. These photos span the shows in LA, Vegas, Tempe, and Dallas.
Keep an eye on Local Wolves for my detailed tour diary from this leg, and follow me on Twitter, IG and Snapchat for all my music BTS: @annaleemedia
This summer I’ve had the opportunity to go out on tour with a really amazing group of people, who are as fun as their music. Smallpools is Sean Scanlon (vocals/keys), Mike Kamerman (guitar), Joseph Intile (bass), and Beau Kuther (drums). These guys are SO talented and have blown everyone away with their rapid success and high energy live show. It was a privilege to document every day life with them on stage and on the road. I also had a blast getting to know the crew that helped make everything possible- Kelsey Kuther (guitar tech), James Wooten (TM & FOH), and Sandor Schlaffer (merch manager). So proud of everything I’ve witnessed them accomplish and to call the whole crew friends!
These photos are just a fraction of what I covered of Smallpools on Grouplove’s Spreading Rumors US Tour. They span shows from Pomona, Tempe, Tucson, Dallas Edge Fest, OKC, and a LOT of time in the Sprinter… And there is so much more to come! I will be following up with more posts from the subsequent run with Neon Trees. Also check out my Instagram for sneak peeks from tour!
Smallpools is gearing up to release a full length album, but give their amazing first single “Dreaming” a listen while you check out this post!
Me with the guys! 
(Most of) the whole tour crew. (Thanks for the photo Catie!) 
The first couple photos were behind the scenes of an interview with the band from Fratzke & Fratzke at the Pomona show- check the video out below!
