Photographers are a different breed of people.They, we, chase the light and see the most mundane of objects in a different way than everyone else.
But when a photographer works with some of the world's most recognized names in the music and fashion industry, well, you don't just chase the sun, you reach for the stars.
Mick Rock has done just that.
With a career that spans more than forty years, Mick Rock is often referred to as "The Man Who Shot the Seventies."
His work is both iconic and has been instrumental in documenting the history of modern music. From record covers, to some of the most recognized images in rock history, Mick is someone that is idolized by music fans across the globe.
Today Mick is largely recognized for photographing contemporary acts such as Daft Punk, The Killers, Cee Lo Green, and the Black Keys, among many others; and is now the host of Ovation TV's "On the Record with Mick Rock."
And yet Mick Rock continues to stay inspired...
"The constant flow of great innovative artists from Syd Barrett to Skrillex keeps my photographic instincts primed. Plus a daily dose of kundalini yoga and massage to keep my third eye wide open!!” - MICK ROCK
Recognizing his talent, not just as a photographer, but as someone that can offer a unique spin on profile series, Mick Rock was brought on by Ovation TV to embark on musical journeys to each of the featured artists hometowns.
The show's raw style and Mick's unapologetic rapport with his guests produces candid conversations and musical performances not usually seen on television.
