Wayward, gloomy and full of energy. That’s New YX. Two tall guys en two small girls are the make up of this band from Amsterdam. Mean female vocals combined with a deep sound and a whiff of Dutch sobriety.

Are you as done with meaningless band images, as we are? Portrays in front of brick walls, blue skies or nearby shrubs. Awkward smiles, empty poses. Eager to bring some originality to the world of band photography? The I Shot the Band contest is challenging you to portrait one out of the three bands on their website. The New YX are just one possibilities. Check IShottheBand.nl for more info.
