Davie Fury - Single Cover

 

Davie Furey released this special one-off single in December 2023.This was a collaboration with writer Richard Ball, who wrote the lyrics. Richard approached me to do the cover. I immediately thought of the beautiful wild flower artwork that Jennifer Lawton creates.  I pitched the idea and he loved it. The 3D and shiney nature of her work made it difficult to scan or photograph. Luckily the print process was very forgiving and the CD turned out great. Davie liked it so much he asked me to do his next album, see next post.

Oisin Leech (Photography)

A few months ago I did a photo session with Oisin Leech (The Lost Brothers) ahead of a project. Above is probably my fav photo from the session. Already photos from that session showing up online.

 

Girlpuppy

 

Two posters here for Girlpuppy who played in Dublin last night. The black one is the one I did after getting the show details. Then the agents provided the white photo.

Beyond the Pale Merch

Here is one of the t-shirts I designed for the Beyond The Pale festival. I thought they turned out really well. If you were at the festival and forgot to buy merchandise, or even if you weren't and want to wear this cool t-shirt, the promotors have set up a shop to sell the leftovers. In a few different colours, I like the black myself.

Sure while we're at it, tickets are on sale for next years festival. It was excellent, recommended.

Beyond The Pale '23

 

Here's a full page ad I put together for 2023's Beyond The Pale festival. This is a full line-up version including the day by day breakdown, the arts line up and the food attractions. It is designed to be poured over in print. This is an incredibly special festival with a relatively small capacity. Not one of these enormous mega festivals that are tough to endure.

The Middle Ages

Here's the cover I did for the band I play with. This is our new single. If I spent 10 minutes on this I'd be surprised. It is an inverted photo of a blank page of this pad I have with a dotted grid on each page. That's it. The last few singles we did use helvetica bold crossed out. Done.

Perlee

 

Album launch poster for Perlee from April of this year. All the lettering on this wasp together from a scanned lyric sheet that was used inside the album cover. That is to say, it's not a dumb font! It is scanned text that was originally typed using the actual typewriter featured on the album cover. Team effort. Check out the album too, it's absolutely great. AppleMusic link. I put that cover together too.

Signals From Mars Podcast

 

First time doing a Podcast identity. Victor had the guts of this design in place, mars and the scratchy type, but it needed some help to look the part. I built this again from scratch. It looks good in podcast apps. If you like Metal, check it out. 

Joy Booth - All You Were CD

 

CD Digipak I put together for Joy Booth. This comes from a painting inspired by the music on the album. I moved a few things to have it work in a CD format and put together the extensive credits in a way that I thought complimented the painting. Also here is the on disc design that streamers never get to see. Buy it from Joy's Bandcamp page.

The Middle Ages Single Cover

 

The Middle Ages have a new song out this week called One Potato. This is the band I play in and write for. It's a tune and should be streamed like there's no tomorrow. I'm a big fan of album/single covers that a just a photo of the band/artist. We took this photo one night at practice (using the front facing camera on an iPhone no less!), then I did some minimal editing to the pic and it was done.
