The Pics in the Pit Team
Pics in the Pit was founded in 2017 in Buffalo, NY with nothing more than a cell phone and a passion for concerts.
We exist because we love the music just as much as you love the music.
We’re here to help you discover your next favorite heavy or pop punk band, learn how to start taking the concert photos of your dreams, or maybe even get your band signed.
