I’m With The Band.

I really love the look of this new book ‘Family’ from Chronicle. For many years, Los-Angeles-based photographer Lauren Dukoff has been photographing close friend and musician Devendra Banhart and an extended, loose-knit international family of artists who share inspiration from their music and each other. This lovely hardcover book-slash-photo-album, ‘Family’, collects Lauren’s intimate portraits and candid images of indie bands like Banhart, Joanna Newsom, Bat for Lashes, Feathers, Espers, Vetiver, Bert Jansch, Vashti Bunyan, and many others. Lauren’s photographs have been featured in numerous magazines and newspapers, including Rolling Stone, Spin, Nylon, and Lula, and her photographs of Devendra Banhart and the other artists in this book have been projected at Los Angeles’ Armand Hammer Museum.
