Global Yodel contributor, photographer, and musician Stevie Dacanay has just finished his debut photo book. And a great one it is! Stevie was kind enough to give us a few copies of his photo book, Everything This Way, to giveaway. – Thanks Stevie! – I love his work and think he is creating some very cool stuff.

The book will be available in March exclusively at Collete (Paris) and 25 Books (Berlin). There will also be a few copies available on Stevie’s website! But act quickly as this is a limited edition of 100 and is going fast.

There is a forward in the book that sums it up nicely: ”This book is an observational narrative built from endless journeys on the road. But there isn’t a single hackneyed cliche. There’s homages to Diane Arbus in Stevie’s portraits of quirky characters that give them depth and humanity. There are wry comments on culture in his still lifes, landscapes and snapshots, some of which allude to art that has come before, such as the storied scenes by O. Winston Link or the deadpan paeans to form and structure by Ed Ruscha that elevate the everyday object. All I have to say is Bravo.” 

Alright who wants copy of this awesome book?  To win just leave a comment below this post for Stevie. Check out the pics above and his website and let us know what you like about his work. Personally, I love the candid/honest quality of his photos. If you head over to our Twitter feed, follow us, and tweet about this giveaway, I will count that as two additional entries. Just be sure to tag @globalyodel so I know. I will choose one winner on the next four Friday’s (Feb 22nd, March 1st, 8th & 15th)

    I absolutely love Stevie’s work. His way of capturing the life on the road is quite unique, because he isn’t symply just a photographer being with the band, he IS part of the band and that’s what gives hime a special eye !

    I’ve been a fan of Stevie’s photography for a few years. I love the storytelling aspect in his photos and also how there’s no hiding in his pictures – he tells it how it is!

    Raw, candid and real. You can feel that he is passionate about his photos by what he has chosen to share.

    The cool thing about Stevie D. is that he is exceptionally talented on two opposite sides of the art spectrum: One is music – the most auditory art can be. The other is photography, the most visual art can be. Many people would kill for *one* of these talents, and Stevie D has them both. This book would be an awesome piece of memorabilia to any fan of Stevie D…like myself.

  7. A BIG CONGRATS TO CHRIS MCINTOSH! You are the winner of todays book giveaway. Email us your mailing address and we will get this right out to you!

    I love Stevie, period.
    He is an amazing human being and kind compassionate soul.
    His smile is infectious and the energy he exudes is so
    positive,, joyous and loving.
    His willingness to expose himself and allow us into
    his world through both his music and photography
    is beyond generous.
    When I experience his music or his photos it makes
    me experience life differently, I feel deeply, I think
    differently, I stop and wonder, I get empowered, I feel
    truly alive and I am GRATEFUL!!!!
    His music and his photos fill me up and I go out and
    give it away to the world, then come back for
    MORE!!!!!!
