New Work!: One night, two gigs, two posters.


The Lucid Dream & Black Market Karma at The Source


Vivian Girls & German Measles at the Brooklyn Bowl

Pow! Right in the kisser! In one night i managed to do two posters and i'm pretty pleased with that. The top image is for The Lucid Dream & Black Market Karma gig at The Source in may (put on by the good people of Holy Are You) and the second is for the Vivian Girls gig at the Brooklyn Bowl which was actually last night. The idea behind that poster is a sort of punk-meets-cops-meets-stalker clippings collected about the mysterious behaviour of a mysterious band. I also wanted this one to be deliberately a little on the experimental side. If you click here to view the large size image on my Flickr you can read the copy and hilarious jokes i added in. I enjoyed getting a chance to go back and do some of my lo-fi punk and psych influenced work that i've not really done much of for a while now (a post about two great designers in that area will be coming soon, hold tight!)

The details for the Holy Are You gig are:

Holy Are You presents:
The Lucid Dream
Black Market Karma
Plus Holy Are You DJs playing a velvet evening of mind expanding, foot stomping psychedelia.
Saturday 8th May

The Source Arts Cafe, Nelson St, Carlisle
£5 on the door

get yourselves down there, it'll be a lot of fun. Besides The Source is a massively underrated and overlooked place to hang out!
