[Unlocked] Episode 204: Just One Stroke feat. Cody Smyth

Cody went to high school with The Strokes. You can say he was at the right place at the right time. Well, that's probably true but if you don't have the talent, you won't get much of it. And The Strokes were fortunate enough to get that one friend who could document their teenage years and their rise to stardom. Cody learned his craft from his parents. His mom was a photographer and she got her share of rock royalty snapping too. She used to work with iconic New York legends like Lou Reed or Johnny Thunders. Young Cody was already well versed in the art of taking pictures when he got to befriend the boys who were gonna form the band that took the new millennium by storm. He was there when they played their first shows and he witnessed how quickly they became rockstars. Their career skyrocketed and so Cody's one. One day, he's at School talking to Nick Valensi, and the next thing you know he's working with THE legendary music photographer Mick Rock, shooting Iggy Pop. Cody has been working now for 20 + years and he tells us how he's approaching his art, with a lot of passion and tons of humility. If your friends are forming a band and you just found your parents' old camera, well you know what to do... Together, we're starting a conversation about saving Rock N' Roll in the City of Angels. Casually talking from the Sunset Strip, we are launching a movement with our collective called Team Nowhere and we are calling artists &amp; fans to unite. If you are in a band, or if you're a photographer, a developer, a hairstylist, whatever your craft... In other words, if you really want to help to put Rock music back on the map for the ten upcoming years... well let's build a community together, and let's plan concrete actions to make a positive shift in our industry. Rock isn't dead, the Sunset strip isn't dead. But only if we want it! #Teamnowhere #Hangingonsunset @team_nowhere @hangingonsunset @nowhere_team_us--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hangingonsunset/messageSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/hangingonsunset/support

Season 1 - Episode 16 // Cody Smyth - Photographing 10 years of The Strokes

Cody Smyth has photographed Joan Jett, Kanye West, Little Wayne, and many more artists, but his most intimate and beautiful work was documenting The Strokes trajectory from kids in a band to full on rock stars over the course of ten years. The journey was collected in his book "The Strokes: The First Ten Years" and we got a chance to talk about his friendship with the band, the humble beginnings, and the onslaught of stardom all through still images. We also reflect on 9/11, it's cultural impact on the city and us as artists going through the tragic events of that day living in NYC. This is an episode very near and dear to my heart and I am so excited to share it with you all. If you are a fan of the band or just a fan of photography, you do not want to miss this episode!
