GRUNGE CITY LANCE MERCER PHOTO TEE

HOMETEAM LANCE MERCER  PHOTO TEE

We’re honored to feature a photo from @lancemphoto one of Seattle’s most legendary music photographers—on our Grunge City Collection tee.
“I was involved in the punk scene in Seattle and realized early on that if I had a camera, I could probably get into shows easier and up closer than without a camera. I didn’t have to be Ansel Adams to take photographs. I didn’t have to be a technical wizard. The same kind of ethos that the Ramones had musically, I could apply photographically.” – Lance Mercer

Born and raised in Seattle, Mercer picked up a camera as a teenager and started documenting the raw energy of the city’s punk and underground shows. Those friends and bands he captured would eventually become the voices of the grunge era—a movement that put Seattle on the map forever.
