Photos: SWANS and Little Annie & Paul Wallfisch at Union Transfer on September 4, 2025

Late last week, experimental rock band Swans came to the City of Brotherly Love for the first stop in their North American tour. Accompanying them on the road for this run of shows is Little Annie & Paul Wallfisch.

We wanted to cover this in some capacity, so of course we put in a call to badass photographer Jess Ripper to head out to Philadelphia. As a result, you’ve got the photos below. Crisp, high detail, it’s almost as if you’re there yourself.

As always, a big thanks is in order for Jess Ripper, who was at the show to take these great photos. Comment on how good her work is down below. Oh and feel free to follow her on Instagram at @jess1ripper.
