KEVIN MCCORMICK | Somewhere the Air is Right, 2024

"Somewhere the Air is Right" documents the process of touring in a small punk band. It focuses on the people and places encountered while playing mostly do-it-yourself venues across the country. These spaces are defiant in nature and often extremely fragile worlds that burn bright and fast. The lens then turns towards bandmates, creating repeating characters that emerge and develop throughout the story presented. The photo-zine is named after a lyric from an unreleased song, and the zine itself is a part of a larger, ongoing project titled, "I'm Wasting My Life".
