Modern Poster


There's a great show coming up next week. The bands Husband & Wife and Everybody from Bloomington will be at the Tiger Room, along with Metavari. I go way back with Everybody. Front man Matt Bruns and I both grew up and went to the same high school in NE Indiana, we worked together at the same screenprinting shop, went to art school together, and started our pro-level design careers at the same agency. So it'll be great to have him here in my city.

I designed a poster for the show. I've been watching Gary Hustwit's Helvetica a lot recently, over and over, in fact. So inspired me to do a clean, modern-style poster...complete with grid system and Helvetica. OF course, I did end up distressing it a little for a slightly vintage, weathered look.
