Photographs Of The Food Musicians Request On Tour

Have you ever wondered about requests from famous people? Wonder no more! Photographer Henry Hargreaves had a look at some celebrity riders and decided he's make art out of their requests. "I was inspired to create this series after reviewing a few riders from some of the biggest acts in the world, all of which were ridiculous. But what I found most interesting about them is that they offered a glimpse into their larger-than-life personalities."
