FAULT: Tell me about your near death experiences?
Jacob: Geez, that’s a pretty intense opening question. At the forefront of everything, I suppose, the one that stands out is the tsunami that unexpectedly hit Sri Lanka in 2004. At the time my family were on vacation in Galle, and we all thought we were going to die. Well it was looking like we…
Guca Festival: the Remedy to Music Festivals’ “commercial Poison”?
British music festivals are suffering a lingering sickness, and it’s spreading. Many have called a year hiatus or cancelled altogether. Sonisphere, The Big Chill and Glastonbury are amongst the big-name victims. Only an elite few, such as Bestival and Secret Garden Party, haven’t been struck by a rapid decline in ticket sales. Organisers claim the affliction is circumstantial citing the…

A Parisian Photography Profile: Sarah T Skinner
Sarah T Skinner has something of the masterpiece about her. This petite, blue-eyed blonde has come a long way from her roots as a native of Seattle, Washington State, to our meeting spot in the 20th arrondissement of Paris.
Other than a sparkling eye she gives little away as to the unique tools she uses to create her craft. But this individual produces the kind of photography that,…

FAULT: Hello! You’ve recently just starting touring your new album, Red Night. Congratulations. First off, you’ve both…
