TODAY, we have a very special #BehindTheBarrel with Jack Daniel’s U.S. Brand Ambassador, ET Tecosky, discussing his new podcast “Rock Tails”, featuring special guest and rock photographer, Alec Byrne.
Tecosky has spent years behind the bar mixing drinks at some of Los Angeles’ most famous, and in some cases infamous, watering holes – most recently, Jones Hollywood. In the early 90’s ET created the Jägermeister based shot “Surfer on Acid.” His taste and inventive spirits have evolved and over the years, ET’s been featured in countless local and national press for his cocktails and innovations and as he likes to say, “Everything I learned behind bars has helped shape where I am right now, and I am grateful for it.”
Perhaps the crown jewel in his long career is becoming the U.S. Brand Ambassador for Jack Daniel’s – a whiskey he has always loved – from what’s in the bottle to what it represents in the world. He gets to travel the country telling stories about what Frank Sinatra called “The Nectar of the Gods.” For ET, the only thing that could top that would have been able to share a drink with the man himself…
ALEC BYRNE began covering the British music scene as a professional photographer in 1967 at the age of 17. After a decade in the rock and roll, he left the UK and his archive went into storage for close to four decades. His legendary archives has since been released and Alec’s first book, LONDON ROCK: The Unseen Archive, was published by Insight Editions in 2017, and his rediscovered photographs have since been featured in numerous magazine pieces, film, TV and book projects, reissues and box sets. A selection of his images has been added to the permanent collection of the National Portrait Gallery in London, and his signed, limited edition, silver gelatin prints are now highly sought-after by collectors.
We are honored to be joined #BehindTheBarrel with these two incredible folks. Pour yourself a glass with us and enjoy! 🥃
