Weds 24th October: THE BOTS ON TOUR ACROSS EUROPE by Dan Wilton












Here is a little teaser of the latest project from photographer Dan Wilton who has turned the results of a spell on tour round Europe with The Bots into a printed zine.  The band comprise of two teenage brothers (Mikaiah, 19, and Anaiah, 15) from California with a penchant for tie dye which features from Dan's documentary photos of their plimsolls thru to the actual physical canvas case sewn to package each zine.  Tomorrow evening Dan will be turning over a Redchurch Street Gallery into a launch for the edition with the duo dj-ing whilst they are in London.  The band have been in the UK this summer as part of Damon Albarn's Africa Express and currently on their own circuit of the countries cities, playing Camden's Barfly next Tuesday.  If you're in town come down to the event tomorrow to pick up your own hand-dyed (see film below) and pink thread bound book - you can see a range of covers in my snap above and a scan of my own copy.  (All other photography Dan's images from the project - see here)
