Last week I saw Phish in Raleigh. One of the things I love most about them (in addition to the peaking guitar solos, mind-melting trips to audio-outer-space, and endearingly silly lyrics*) is that they always employ some really talented artists to do a one-of-a-kind gig poster for each of their live shows (one of my dream jobs, by the way).
My Associate Cornelius, a one-man shop run by Micah Smith, was just that talented artist hired to create the poster for last weeks’ show. He specializes in posters and apparel for the music industry. His work follows a simple but often difficult to pull off formula of a striking illustration, tastefully incorporated typography, and a restrained color palette. Lots of good stuff in his portfolio and shop.
*These sentiments are my own and do not necessarily definitely do not represent the sentiments of some other authors of OK Great. Whatever.
