Fortune’s Folly brings nothing short of ecstatic, sound-popping entertainment. Lead singer, Calysta Cheyenne leaves you with her memorable air-punching, side-kicking, crowd-pleasing interactions and vocals you won’t soon forget. Surrounded by her chill band members, guitarist Ira Mazie, bassist Jesse Sanchez, and drummer Alex Koleber who fill the air with a high-energy electric rock that in spirit resembles the classic sounds of NO DOUBT. However, Fortune’s Folly earns its own signature space in today’s music despite nostalgic hints of sounds past.

I had recently discovered Fortune’s Folly this past winter on a random visit to Howie’s on Front Street (Medford, OR). I had no idea who they were and we did not stay super long so I had to track them down via Google. Fortune’s Folly originates from Eugene, Oregon, and the band is a very genuine group of Oregonians. I really love seeing them shine!

Concert photography can be tricky, but super rewarding. Especially with a subject such as Cheyanne with her energetic moves. Lighting can be moment to moment to catch the right expression in the right light. I love the challenge of finding interesting angles that tell the complete story.

Enjoy this collection of my favorite shots from their performance at Bayer Family Estate last weekend at their summer concert kick-off.

Give them a listen on Spotify or follow them on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube … They’re on fire right now buscar!

I have a 2019 contract with Bayer Family Estate to shoot part of their summer concert series and their lineup is fantastic! Check out Bayer’s lineup of music for this summer (2019) here. Bayer Family Estate is located in Eagle Point, Oregon. Ask about their summer concert pass. They’ve got a great space for the sound environment and it’s covered but in the open air on beautiful vineyard landscapes.
