Chant is the industrial project of multi-instrumentalist Bradley Bills. This was Chant’s, and Bradley’s return to the stage after a several year absence due to an injury Bradley sustained. When Bradley told me his band was getting back to performing on stage I jumped at the chance to shoot the show on color film.
