“Celebrating 30 years since the release of Tinderstick’s iconic second album, we are proud to present ’Travelling Light’, a collection of what became known as ‘the Tailor Sessions’ the band's album cover shoot, shown in full for the first time. Phil Nicholl’s candid, Magnum Photos inspired reportage presents the band in their ascendancy, celebrating their album’s release with a suit fitting at bespoke legend Timothy Everest's atelier. These enigmatic, intimate and timeless images appeared on album covers, posters and in album of the year lists in magazines across Europe, but have never been seen in such detail, having now been scanned with a 2025 clarity emphasising the film’s silver tones and rich midtones. 

A time capsule of one of the UK’s most evocative bands in their first guise, at a time that London’s music, fashion and art scenes were taking on the world, photos that "capture something so deep of the moment: the aspiration, the growing confidence, the irreverence and the anarchy.” - Stuart A. Staples.”
