Photographer Tom Sheehan on Oasis, Weller, Springsteen and more.

About this episode

Matt Royal interviews photographer Tom Sheehan about his experiences with iconic bands and his new book on Oasis.

Tom Sheehan was born in Camberwell, South London. He was an in-house photographer for CBS Records in the 70s, and went on to be the chief photographer for Melody Maker. He enjoyed long-term working relationships with the likes of REM, The Cure, Manic Street Preachers, and Oasis, the subject of a new book of Tom’s work entitled “Roll With It: Oasis in Photographs 1994-2002”. I had a great time chatting with Tom about his life and work, and I hope you enjoy it too. Instagram: @sendingsignalspodcast
