These images are a selection from a portrait series titled “Born Backstage” that examines the world of children of iconic music legends. This series reflects my own experience as a child of the bluegrass icon Peter Rowan, growing up in Northern California’s free-spirited music scene. Through portraiture of other children of rock stars who have come into their own right as artists, I investigate the effect of our unique collective upbringings, wondering if ‘sex, drugs, rock ’n roll’ and childhood mix? Include are the children of Frank Zappa, Santana, Jerry Garcia, Richard Tompson, and Peat Sears of the Jefferson Starship
