How To Become A Rockstar Photographer Podcast - Learn Concert Photography from the best Photographers On This Planet


Jun 6, 2017

Todays guest is Tim Thornton (guitarist and drummer of the UK band Fink).

I worked with Fink several times over the last 3 years and it’s been a fruitful collaboration. They used one of my concert photos in their live album “wheels turn beneath my feet”, I photographed their tourposter for their world tour in 2015 and I joined them for 3 days tour in Austria. Through these collaborations we became friends and I am excited Tim found the time to join my show.

Tim will reveal how he got started as musician and how Fink evolved from a students band to a successful indie band. We will talk about his life on tour, how he sees the music business as a musician and what factors are important for him when choosing to work with photographers.

Furthermore, Tim is also an author and we’ll dig into his first book „The Alternative Hero“,  which The Guardian titled as „The indiest book of all time“ and he’ll talk about his crowdfunding campaign to get his 3rd book out.
