236 - Paolo

236 - Paolo

Paolo was the musician Jane (stranger #235) was filming on her phone.

Paolo is half Italian/half English and lives in Chelmsford as a single parent to 3 children. Performing his music at gigs around the area this is his main source of income.

"I'm a 21st Century one man band!"

"I perform at gigs 2-3 times every week. I'm promoting my latest album but as yet I'm unsigned to a label.

Success is coming though!"

I spoke to Paolo's manager Martin afterwards, who said.

"Paolo is on the brink of much success. We are attending a function where Paolo is the only unsigned act, him being there is no coincidence. We are optimistic!"

Thanks Paolo and Martin!
Wishing you every success.

234 - Usman

234 - Usman

I noticed Usman walking along listening to his music on headphones and thought the colour tones of his clothing would match the dark green background of a nearby building.

With a little hesitation Usman agreed to my making his portrait. He told me he was living and studying in Chelmsford but beyond that he was a man of very few words.

I thanked Usman for his time and we parted company.

235 - Jane

235 - Jane

Jane was filming a street performer on her phone and looked to be enjoying the music of the musician, Paolo, (stranger 236). I got chatting to Jane, asking if she was part of Paolo's management or support. No, she knew Paolo and stopped to say hello.

I asked Jane to be part of my project, to which she obviously agreed but said; "I'm the most un-photogenic person I know.."

We moved to a nearby alleyway, out of the direct afternoon sunshine.

Jane works in London but lives in Chelmsford, she was meeting with friends for lunch but had stopped by where Paolo was performing to say hello.

"Music, good food and wine make me happy. I'm a massive fan of George Michael but obviously I will never get to see him perform again."

Jane gave me her business card and said, "If you manage to get any decent shots could you please send them to me?"

Thanks Jane.
