Bill Daniel

Texas-born, San Francisco exiled, and confirmed tramp, Bill Daniel continues to experiment with survivalism and bricolage in his attempts to record and report on the various social margins he finds himself in. Currently based on the Texas gulf coast, Daniel divides his time between Texas and touring.

Jake Reinhart

Jake reads books written by alcoholics and perverts. Listens to music made by art students and criminals. Eats spicy food and rides his bicycle in traffic.

He spends a lot of time in a small dark room lit by a dim red light. The rest of his time is spent getting tattooed, taking photographs and traveling with his wife. She’s rad. He’s funny.
