Local Lennox Heads Photographer Heidi Flumm took this photo of Gary Clark Junior at this year’s Bluesfest. “It’s one of my favourite shots,” she says. “Not just because I’m a big fan of his music, but because I think it captures something of his onstage presence. He’s a formidable musician and it’s been interesting to watch his transition into musical superstardom. He’s the personification of the young, eye-catching, slightly arrogant rock star and he plays with an air of disconnection from his audience which I feel comes through in this picture. He’s a man of few words when he plays, but as with all great musicians, his music does more than enough talking for him and you’re left feeling like you’ve lucked into witnessing a new generation’s great musical sensation.”
