Photos from #BedlamStream

Our first live stream went out to viewers in the USA, UK, mainland Europe and Australia, receiving ecstatic feedback on social media via the #BedlamStream hashtag. The show featured a solo Felix Hagan airing songs from his upcoming EP with The Family, followed by a full electric set of new material and reimagined classics by Louis Barabbas & The Bedlam Six.
Thanks to WR Audio, NoiseBoy and The Sessions Of March for grappling with the complex technical side of the operation. Also thanks to Ozzy the studio dog for setting twitter ablaze every time he trotted into view.
Here are few photos taken by regular Debt collaborators Andrew Ab, Steve Hall and Christine Keating to give you a taste of the event.
