Katie Anderson photographs New York indie/hip hop group Gym Class Heroes and its front man Travis McCoy at show at the Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms
Gym Class Heroes are an indie/hip hop group centered around singer Travis McCoy and which comes from Geneva in New York. They have to date released two albums, 2006's 'As Cruel as School Children', and this year's 'The Quilt', which was produced by hip hop producers Cool and Dre and Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy. These photos of Travis were taken two weeks after the release of 'The Quilt' by Katie Anderson for Pennyblackmusic on the 22nd September at the Wedgewood Rooms in Portsmouth.
