Photo’s & Keynote Speaker from 4/24 at the Hard Rock Cafe in Boston.

The Local Connection: Open Mic & Music Networking event at the Hard Rock Cafe in Boston on Sunday April 24th was a great time! We had over 30 performers of all ages and genres come to perform. We want to thank local photographer Frank McDonough for providing his photography services and our keynote speaker Jimbo Jones of Boston Rocks Local.

Frank McDonough is a graduate of New England School of Photography and Clark University Digital Arts Program. He has been published many times and enjoys teaching portrait photography to up and coming photographers over the last several years. His portrait work can vary from fine art to fun candid portraits. His goal is to always make sure his subject feels comfortable and has fun. Frank is a musician himself who has been to numerous events put on by Next Generation Concerts. Please check out the photos he took on Sunday on his website here.

Frank McDonough and Next Generation Concerts have collaborated to create a photoshoot event for artists looking for photography at an affordable rate. Details posted soon.
