Description
You've probably read an article comparing a White Stripes song to Led Zeppelin. Well, this is the song.
Ryan is joined by Chris Polinsky to discuss this track from 2000's De Stijl, and to dive into Chris's experiences with the band, from discovering and cheerleading their sophomore album, to getting the opportunity to photograph them before a pivotal 2000 show at New York City's Mercury Lounge. Chris also shares his experience working at Saturday Night Live, including a significant introduction to Jack and Meg White.
Chris Polinsky is a photographer and creative based in California who captured the White Stripes on the De Stijl tour.
