LOCAL MUSIC SCENEZINE
Music creates community. Local music scenes can create such a wonderfully diverse culture of musicians and other artists alike who are all drawn together through their love of music. Studio Yamaguchi got its start in the San Diego local scene, and is now still heavily involved in and inspired by the Dutch local music scenes in Amsterdam and the surrounding cities. This zine contains photos collected from local shows that were shot, edited, printed, and produced by Studio Yamaguchi.
