The Internet may have democratized the music industry, making it easy for bands to distribute their songs without a record label, but it also made the competition that much more intense. Music lovers have so many options, it’s hard for a band to stand out.
So it’s extra gratifying when a major media outlet takes notice of an indie act, which is exactly what happened with And the Kids. The Wall Street Journal recently named the Northampton, Massachusetts–based trio one of “8 Music Acts to Watch” in 2015, predicting that they are “poised to break out this year.” If you’re in New York, you can decide for yourself: And the Kids are playing tonight at 9 at the Rockwood Music Hall in Manhattan. Details here.
Photo duo Guzman shot the publicity images for the band, whose debut full-length album, Turn to Each Other, just came out. Below, some of their favorite images from the shoot.

“We had such an amazing crew,” says Liz. “Our producer/friend Julianne Maloney wrangled us all. Our dream team was Ana Marie Rizzieri and Tommy Buckett as the glam squad and Almundena Guerra styling the looks. And, of course, my boys, lighting guru Tim Young and digital artist Dustin Betterly.
“The amazing thing about Jen,” she continues, “along with her jewelry—every piece is a must have!—is that she is so wonderful to work and she does it all: has a successful business, is an involved mother, and still manages to be a genuine, down-to-earth, ready-to-collaborate creative force. She is for sure a card-carrying member of the girlboss club!
“And it is always amazing to me how a model plus a cyc can create such simple yet sophisticated and elegant imagery when done right with lighting, styling, hair, makeup, and great talent.”
