PHOTOS: Sleater-Kinney, Sunny Day Real Estate & Band of Horses at Bumbershoot

Bumbershoot 2023 is in the books and as always the festival featured an embarassment of riches when it came to showcasing local artists. Three of those locals were near, or at, headliner status. Band of Horses, which formed in Seattle, Sunny Day Real Estate and Sleater-Kinney delivered some of the most anticipated and well-loved sets of the festival. Here’s a look at those performances from behind the lens of photographer Steven Friederich.

About Steven Friederich

Steven has been taking concert photos since 1999 and has since earned his stripes in countless photo pits. He’s been spit at by Trent Reznor, growled at by Rob Zombie, his hair was almost caught on fire by Rammstein’s flame-throwing guitar and he was assaulted by an AC-DC security guard because his photo pass was visible. Despite all this, he still manages to enjoy shooting arena rock concerts.
