Red Queen Contest

I got a pre-release copy of the Red Queen Contest album that I did the design work for. Happy to report that it looks well and sounds great.

Blur

Ad for this summer's Blur concert. This was in the Sunday Times a few weeks ago.

The Ramones

I did this a couple of years ago. It was to be a Christmas present for a Ramones fan. All the information is correct and comes from the original 1978 advertisement for their Irish gigs. I just redesigned it but tried to make it look like it was still done in 1978. Probably should have done the lettering with Letraset.

Gemma Hayes

Fairly boring poster for Gemma Hayes from 2011.

Kate Ellis

Kate Ellis doing her musician in residence shows in Cork last year.

Richie Hawtin

Richie Hawtin poster from back in 2011. I'm just doing some backing up and finding random stuff.

Forbidden Fruit 2013

A few versions of the artwork for the Forbidden Fruit festival. This is a lot of work spread over a long period of time. A lot of changes and a lot of versions. The basic idea is that of the promoter and I was wary of it. With less than a month to go I've come around and it's a lot more workable than I thought it'd be. It looks especially well on the festival's website. 

Public Enemy

Simple quick Public Enemy poster for their gig next week in Dublin. I just grabbed the cool illustration from their latest album and cleaned it up a bit.

Slane Studios

Logo for Slane Studios on Crookedwood Farm in Co. Meath. Enda wanted a new look for the studio and he knew what he was after. So it was just a case of getting it done. I also did up some new posters and tarted up the website a little bit. Slane Studios is a nice spot. And I'm not just saying that.

Ennio Morricone

Ennio Morricone's show in Dublin this summer. On the left is the quick first draft just to get things going and on the right is the final version that went to print. The sunset in that second one was taken while Leonard Cohen was onstage at IMMA last year. 

Nell Bryden

Time to dig out an old one. Nell Bryden from 2010. A quick look at her site to grab that link it looks like she's done a Taylor Swift and reached for the black eye liner and tossed the hair. 

Blur

New poster for this summer's one-off by Blur. Maybe later in the year I'll revisit this one with a longer post.
