Behind the scenes Austin photoshoot

Austin, Texas has incredible vibrancy. They literally have it on the streets as captured by NY Artist Craig Hien. And a perfect place for a high energy photo shoot. The Hotel Saint Cecilia is a slice of photographic heaven and Model Talent Michelle Box and Amy Cook played the part of angels well.

Austin is HIP! as in young, recently-settled urban middle class of adults and older teenagers with interests in non-mainstream fashion and culture, particularly alternative music, independent rock, independent film and magazines. Oh yeah even the millions of bats that fly out of Bat wing park at sundown have their own vibe too.

The Vibe Refinery is helping to "Keep Austin Weird".

We have had the distinct pleasure of working with Nichelson Entertainment on their roster of Jazz talent. The Duke Ellington small band, Shelley Carroll and kyle Turner to name a few. So when the owner Frederick Nichelson came to The Vibe Refinery to concept his latest project we knew we had to create something visually arresting yet in sync with the Title "Dream Life".
We chose to eliminate the oblivious solutions like blue skies, fancy trapping or wild groups of photos. We chose to create a very ethereal piece of artwork that fits the theme and is visual punch in the eye. This CD is by far one of Fingerprints best.
With an array of Jazz talent on this latest project you will sure to enjoy this one. Look for it on CDBaby.com in September 2009.

Michael Jackson. The King of POP one of the best entertainers the world has known. Condolences to Janet Jackson and the rest of the Jackson family.

I saw Memphis Coy at Nordstom's yesterday.

Dallas has a little know secret. The Prophet Bar located in Deep Ellum. This is a hot little spot on Wednesday nights. The set starts late 10pm, but if you want to be with the Neo Soul , Hip Hop in crowd, this is the place. R.C. Williams (RCEEEZY) and The Gritz Band killed it the entire night, moving from Erykah Badu's jazzy cuts to Snoop Doggs Gin and Juice seamlessly.
DJ Jay Clipp spun some east coast flavor between sets too. The Vibe was incredible.

Summer is here and Tee-Shirts are everywhere. The Vibe Refinery is launching into T-shirt design mode. We have created memorable T-shirts for large and small clients alike. Watch for a new set of designs coming soon.
