Richard Beland
Richard Beland is a music photographer. His extensive body of work, dating back to 1986, includes performance photographs as well as studio portraits.
Richard first saw the Tragically Hip perform in support of Road Apples in 1991. However, his first bonafide opportunity to photograph the band came about in Europe at the Torhout-Werchter Music Festival in Belgium, during the Summer of 1993, when the band was touring behind the Fully Completely album. Richard had been given access to shoot all of the bands on the bill, including Metallica, the Black Crowes, Lenny Kravitz, Sonic Youth, Neil Young, and The Tragically Hip. The rest is history.
Richard has photographed the Tragically Hip over 150 times, including the performance at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. Other high points included photographing the album art work for In Violet Light, earning a Juno nomination for the photographic contribution to Gord Downie's solo album Battle of the Nudes, and hosting a career retrospective exhibit of The Tragically Hip entitled "Colour of the Night".
