Creativity in the Capital: Paul Bates brings Northern California artists to tape in a digital age
Paul Bates is the creator of the YouTube channel lo-fire, which offers local performers a chance to showcase their music. It’s a weekly Sacramento-centric — for the most part — artist discovery series. Recorded and produced by Bates in his Sacramento home, lo-fire is filmed using a combination of VHS and digital camera work.
