Reggae Band “Jaskamon” in Lincoln City

by | USA & Canada

Oregon Music Road Trip

The reggae band Jaskamon played many times in Lincoln City, but that is not where it originates. Close to Lincoln City in Oregon is a small town called Otis. This location is the place where my friends live. I stayed with them for almost two weeks, where I took many pictures related to my friend Bary’s band “JaSkaMon” They played in small bars along the Oregon Coast and Portland. I even recorded some footage.

Being there and taking pictures gave me a good insight into American culture. I also tried to capture the coastline’s moods, especially with the fog coming in at night. One day Jaskamon also had a gig in Portland where we shot a music video two years ago. In my Showroom Section, you will find the clip.

About the Author

Hi, my name is Christian Köhlert, and I am a photographer and digital content creator living most of the time in Montreux, Switzerland. In 2016, I went on an extended journey from Medicine Hat in Canada with my friend Jens. He built us a camper truck that brought us down to San Pedrito Beach in Baja California, Mexico. There, I learned surfing, so I came every year to enjoy the waves. If you like my photos in this post, I have many more in my Travel Photography Blog.
