TCF Ep. 649 - Martyn Goddard
Episode 649
Friday, 7 November, 2025
When photographer Martyn Goddard began documenting the emerging punk and new wave scene in London during the late 1970s, he was capturing more than a musical movement—he was photographing a cultural revolution. His lens found its way to some of the most influential bands of the era, none more iconic than Blondie. His candid, stylish, and energetic photographs reveal the band's magnetic presence both on and off stage, chronicling the rise of Debbie Harry and her bandmates at a moment when music, fashion, and attitude collided. That work is now celebrated in his new book, Blondie: In Camera, a visual time capsule that immerses readers in the band's world during their formative years. More than nostalgia, the book reflects Goddard's ability to balance artistry and access—creating images that feel as intimate as they are electric. Through his photographs, he reminds us why Blondie's aesthetic and spirit continue to resonate decades later, defining an era when photography and music were inseparable forces of style and identity.
