Alec Byrne

Alec Byrne began covering the British music scene in 1966 at age 17 and went on to work for New Musical Express. He photographed legendary artists like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, and David Bowie. His archive, stored for close to four decades, was reintroduced in 2012 with a legendary one-night exhibition in Los Angeles. His work, now featured in major exhibitions and the National Portrait Gallery in London, is highly sought after by collectors. Alec’s first book, LONDON ROCK: The Unseen Archive, was published in 2017.
