Venue: Jodrell Bank Observatory: Live From Jodrell Bank Transmission 004
Photographer: Simon J. Newbury

Quite possibly one of the best backdrops to a music festival, Jodrell Bank in Cheshire makes a wonderful setting and all the more nice in the summer sun! Simon J. Newbury Photography has photographed every ‘Transmission’ to date and this year the events were kicked off with the Australian Pink Floyd and Hawkwind.

We have photographed both bands previously and I know that both bands put on a wonderful visual show. Hawkwind have a series of fantasy characters and the light show put on by Floyd is amazing. It was also great to see Forecast on the bill. We have photographed them many times locally at The Box and even gave them their first ever gig at Boxjam a few years ago!

These are a few photos from Transmission 004:
