DAVID MICHAEL KENNEDY – NEBRASKA ALBUM COVER PHOTOGRAPHS

Posted on 2025-10-06

David’s photograph for Springsteen’s Nebraska album cover is among the most recognizable images in rock history. The image was originally captured in winter 1975, depicting a desolate road seen through a car windshield during a snowstorm.
“The cover shot was taken from the window of an old pickup truck in the dead of winter,” Kennedy recalls. The photo encapsulates the stark, reflective mood of Springsteen’s acoustic album, becoming a lasting symbol of American loneliness and resilience.
The exhibition will feature prints from Kennedy’s photoshoot with Springsteen, which also appear on the album covers in the box set. Visitors will have a rare chance to see and acquire the images that define the visual identity of one of America’s most influential albums.

Opposite – Bruce in Field, 1982

Exhibition runs through to November 17th, 2025
