LIONSHARE has always approached hip-hop with a childlike sense of wonder. Their first song was a 2008 bedroom recording about how cool it would be to have spinning rims on headphones. Shows followed that summer, and ever after, sweaty affairs with likeminded party rappers such as Das Racist and Ninjasonik. Audiences in Brooklyn and beyond soon perked their ears to the telltale thump of “Trip to Feza” and other swaggering tunes. An EP, Shareholders Report Vol. 1, brought these songs to merch tables and the Internet.
These are photos from concerts where Lionshare played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
