Eye to Eye gathers for the first time more than 150 photographs by rock musician Graham Nash. While best known as a founding member of the rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash, and (sometimes) Young, Nash also developed a parallel career as a photographer, collector, and pioneer of digital imaging. Shot between 1969 and 2003, Nash's photographs include revealing portraits of family and friends, images of life on the road, still lifes and landscapes, street photographs, and a unique series of self-portraits which often shows him reflected in windows and mirrors. Eye to Eye establishes Nash as a masterful visual artist with a keen eye for moments and scenes not immediately available to the common eye.

Lovingly illustrated with thirty original and inspired works by esteemed art director, graphic designer, and illustrator Hugh Syme, Our House brings to life the joyful emotions of Graham Nash’s song “Our House.” The book conjures the warm feelings we all share in our hearts about a loving and caring home. Appropriate for all ages, Our House is at once a beautifully illustrated children’s book and a magical visual journey for readers of all ages, especially the millions of people around the world who embraced the song as their own. Our House also contains a newly recorded version by Graham Nash of the classic song “Our House,” punctuating the book’s images and allowing for timeless and fun sing-a-longs with the book.

Graham Nash, geb. 1942 in Blackpool, war zunächst Gitarrist, Songwriter und Sänger bei den Hollies, bevor er England 1969 verließ und in New York die Gruppe Crosby, Stills & Nash mitbegründete. Nash ist aber nicht nur als Musiker bekannt geworden, er war immer auch als Photograph in der Szene dabei und ist ein ausgewiesener Kenner und leidenschaftlicher Sammler von Photographien. Für unser Buch hat er nun seine Lieblingsphotos aus der inzwischen 50-jährigen Geschichte des Rock und Pop zusammengetragen und mit persönlichen Anmerkungen kommentiert. Hier sind sie alle versammelt – neben Annie Leibovitz’ unvergesslichen Bildern aus ihrer Zeit beim Rolling Stone Magazine natürlich Anton Corbijn, Richard Avedon, Jim Marshall, Mick Rock und Dennis Hopper. In seiner Auswahl gelingt es Nash, auch den Sound der Musikphotographie zum Klingen zu bringen: mit Portraits von Joan Baez und Bob Dylan, Elvis on stage, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison und Kurt Cobain, einer Momentaufnahme seiner früheren Freundin Joni Mitchell, John Lee Hookers Hand und Bob Dylans Händen. Es sind Bilder, die am Rand von Konzerten entstanden und die Konzentration backstage oder das Abhängen im Hotelzimmer einfangen – alles in allem Rock-Ikonen vom Feinsten.

Graham Nash, Sänger und Songwriter der Hollies, Mitglied der Supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, begab sich in den 60er-Jahren auf die Reise von Nordengland über das Swinging London bis zum Sonnenstaat Kalifornien. Auf seinem Weg schuf er viele der Kulthits, die eine ganze Generation prägten, darunter 'Bus Stop', 'Carrie Anne', 'Marrakesh Express', 'Teach Your Children'.
