Rocket Boy

Kirkland Leach gives an impromptu performance in his yard as his caregiver and musical collaborator Shane de Leon looks on.

Last month I photograph a nine-year-old boy with autism who is also something of a musical prodigy.  His caregiver, Shane de Leon, seen above has become part of his musical act as well as his record producer.  Their band is called Road Race and they are having a CD release party at Back Space in NW Portland.  You can read the whole story at The Portland Sentinel website site.
