Pat Graham's debut book of band photography, Silent Pictures, is now available from the Dischord web-store.

Pat Graham has been a photographer for nineteen years and spent several years working with us here at Dischord. His photography centers around musicians and has been featured on dozens of albums for many different labels (and is well represented throughout this website). Pat spent years on the road with bands, especially Modest Mouse, capturing all aspects of being a musician (playing music, and living the life). Silent Pictures covers this ground and more, featuring photographs of Modest Mouse, Fugazi, Slant 6, Bikini Kill, Lungfish, Unrest, June of 44, Make-Up and many more.

Pat currently lives in London, England where he continues taking pictures and running 96 Gillespie, the gallery he co-founded with his wife Melanie Standage.

The long out of print Peterbilt releases from Deadline, "8/2/82", and Rain, "La Vache Qui Rit", have both been re-issued onto CDs, in conjunction with Dischord Records, and are now shipping from the Dischord web-store. These CDs will be available in record stores on September 3.

The Peterbilt Label was founded in 1988 by Guy Picciotto. Over the years Peterbilt issued records by DC bands such as Happy Go Licky, Rain, Deadline, and The Black Light Panthers, all packaged in the distinctive manila envelopes that became the graphic signature of the label. Though all the original vinyl releases are long out of print, more recently, Peterbilt has partnered with Dischord to bring out Compact Discs of this archival material.

The Benefit show will feature: Dave Smalley (ex-Dag Nasty/Down By Law), Marc Ganancias , The Saviors, Pup Tent , Lorelei (Slumberland), Jerry Busher (of Fugazi / French Toast/ All Scars)
