Jonathan Postal

Rock Photographer & Frontman of Rattlesnale Whip

Jonathan Postal has spent his life on both sides of the lens and the stage. A veteran of the original San Francisco punk scene, he first made his mark as the bassist for the Avengers and co-founder of The Readymades. Today, he channels that same raw energy as the singer for Rattlesnale Whip, a band that blends grit, swagger, and pure rock intensity.

As a rock photographer, Postal’s work captures the electricity, chaos, and emotion that define live music. His images—featured in Punk magazine, the Memphis Flyer, and numerous exhibitions—reveal the soul of performers and fans alike. Whether shooting legendary acts or underground icons, his photography is infused with the authenticity of someone who’s lived the music himself.

From the mosh pit to the photo pit, Jonathan Postal continues to live and breathe rock ’n’ roll—loud, unapologetic, and always in focus.
