JNG, Part III

October 9, 2012

Photographed in Atlanta, GA

Raised in:
Born in Ft. Worth, raised on the state line of Georgia/Florida.

Lives in:
Atlanta, Georgia

(Current) favorite band from the south:
The South is really a hotbed of great music… even more so lately than in past years. Athens is killing it right now: Futurebirds and The Whigs always put on a great show, and Reptar are upbeat and danceable in that guilty pleasure sorta way.  I saw Nashville’s Jeff the Brotherhood at the Gentlemen of the Road stopover in Bristol – those dudes are so rock n’ roll. If we’re counting Texas and Florida as the South (I’m going to) – Surfer Blood out of Palm Beach County are so chill but still complex, and I don’t really see myself ever getting sick of going to Ghostland Observatory (out of Austin) shows. Of course, Alabama Shakes – I saw them at Bonnaroo and they’re on the verge of something huge. And as far as Atlanta goes? I can’t even talk about Outkast deciding to not move forward with new music. To me, they’re the Alpha and the Omega. Not gonna lie though, I can get into some Usher.

Now would ya look at that:
You should recognize by now that this is our girl Jess from The Love List!

  • Theysken’s Theory blazer.
  • T by Alexander Wang tee.
  • Levi’s jorts.
  • Phillipe Matignon tights. “I swear by these.”
  • Tory Burch bag.
  • Boots bought in Austin, TX at a no-name boot shop. “I have worn the label out, so I have no idea who they’re by, just that I like ’em.”

    Dang! I was 25 minutes from the irrepressible J. Graves, and didn’t even know it. Everyone I ever heard of was at that Mumford show. Except me.

    Jess, great look. Caroline, great shot.
