Pat is a music photographer and journalist based in Albany, NY, with a lifelong passion for photography. Living his life through a lens, he captures the energy and emotion of live performances, telling stories that words can’t. His camera is the tool he uses to freeze the essence of music.

Pat’s goal is simple: to make music look as good as it sounds. Believing the visual side of music is just as powerful, he creates images that elevate the experience for both fans and artists. Each shot captures the soul of the music, preserving its impact long after the last note fades.

Bush Finds Grace in Wreckage with “I Beat Loneliness”

Pat Rogers Jul 15, 2025
Bush’s tenth album doesn’t ask for your nostalgia, it only requests your presence - I Beat Loneliness is not a return to form. It’s a stripping away of everything except what’s real in the human condition. It’s raw, reflective and deeply…
