Mancunian photographer Kevin Cummins started his career with a amateur shot of David Bowie (wouldn’t be his last), and right out of university took some of the most iconic pictures of Joy Division, and helped shaped the image of the legendary Post-Punk band.
But despite being well known for working with Joy Division and New Order, Cummins also worked with Morrissey and The Smiths—The Birthday Party, Slaughter and the Dogs, The Fall, The Stones Roses, The Happy Mondays, Oasis, Bjork, PJ Harvey, The Manic Street Preachers, and many more.
Visit Kevin Cummins official website for information on exhibitions, and watch this full talk below hosted by Louder Than War’s (and The Membranes) John Robb, full of anecdotes featuring many of the musicians mentioned above.
