If you hang around me for more than five minutes, you will inevitably hear me rhapsodize about Great Big Sea, one of my all-time favorite bands. They were a lively quartet, and later quintet, out of Newfoundland up until they broke up in 2013. I still love ’em to death, not only because their two lead singers were drop-dead gorgeous, not only because of their high-energy folk music, but because they inspired me to resume playing music myself after a long dry spell. I play the guitar because of them. I have a bouzouki because of them. For these things alone, I’ll always love my B’ys. So in their honor, I keep these photos up for viewing!

Great Big Sea is a widely photographed band, and there have been a number of photo sites and collections dedicated to them on the Net over the years. My own collection is comparatively very modest, and mostly contributed to by folks who kindly gave me permission to use their pictures.
