"Resonators is a personal project by the photographer Scarlet Page. For 24 months she travelled the globe on a personal quest to photograph the greatest guitar players in the world of rock, such as Brian May, Mark Knopfler, Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, and Paul McCartney. Resonators became an epic collection. Each guitarist's photograph in the book will be accompanied by words from her about the day she spent with each guitarist.

Compiled under the art direction of Warren Jackson with additional wording from novelist Ben Myers, the book appeals not only to music lovers, but to people who love pop culture, photography, and music history.

The book production was successfully funded by a Kickstarter campaign in 2015. Printed in a beautiful Duotone Process on heavy paper stock, this coffee table book will soon become a collectible item."

About the Author:

"Scarlet Page studied photography at the University of Westminster in the early ’90’s. She is the daughter of Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page and Charlotte Martin, a French model. She quickly developed her own fresh, documentary style travelling America with The Smashing Pumpkins, The Beastie Boys and the other acts on the Lollapolooza tour of 1994 and the following year she had a shot feature in The Verve’s ‘A Northern Soul’ album artwork which really got things started. Since then Scarlet has gone on to work with some of the music world’s biggest acts. She worked closely with Robbie Williams on various projects including album art and the book ‘Somebody Someday’ and she toured the World with The Darkness. Her other credits include The Foo Fighters, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Rolling Stones, Stereophonics, The Black Crowes and Placebo with pictures appearing in The Times, The Independent, Mojo, Q, Uncut and Clash amongst others. She continues to be commissioned by all the major record labels to shoot artwork and press campaigns for high profile bands. Scarlet has had various exhibitions of her own and has contributed to collective shows including the Visions of Dylan show in 2007. She has also worked extensively for charities, including the ABC Trust, the PDSA, Teenage Cancer Trust and Warchild. For the latter, Scarlet photographed artists and celebrities and their children for a fund raising exhibition held at the Proud Gallery in Camden and later at the Royal Albert Hall."
