Welcome to Music Pictures!

We are the premier source of music related imagery on the web!
In these pages you will find upwards of 100,000 fantastic pictures covering all aspects of popular, great and cutting edge music.
From Soul to Zydeco, Gospel to Punk, we cover thousands of bands, singers, musicians and musical subjects including studio equipment, crowds, dancers, fashions and atmospheric lighting.
We licence our superb images to publishers, broadcasters, advertisers and record companies the world over.
Our clients are small and large businesses, institutions and discerning fans alike, all wanting to find the perfect music picture for their magazine, record cover, book, calendar, presentation, advertising campaign, home or other projects.
Initially based on the famous Redferns collection (founded by photographer David Redfern in the early 1960’s) we also represent selected music related images from the V&A Museum in London, PYMCA in London, KPA in Germany and several individual music photographers.
Our team is lead by Simon Redfern in Berlin. Why not visit us? See below for our address.
