Photographing Bands / by Ron Cowie

On the road with Prong

Just like Annie Leibovitz, I got my start photographing bands. Prong was, and is, a band of tremendous influence in the music scene. I had the chance to photograph them while on tour in the early 90's. The band members: Tommy Victor, Paul Raven, John Bechdel and Ted Parsons were playing large clubs and opening for arena bands.

It was a terrific time for them and I learned a lot about storytelling.
