I’ve been working with The Lumineers a fair amount over the last year to create a number of gig posters for their world tour in support of new album Cleopatra. This is the latest one I’ve done for the second leg of their tour which started last weekend. The posters will be available at the shows on North American dates – EU version to follow in November!
I have a limited amount of artist proof posters available for Daughter’s sold out Shepherds Bush Empire gig in London. Have a look in my etsy shop.

Over the last month or so I’ve also been working with Bear’s Den of Communion Records which has been great. They asked me to produce a poster for their current European tour for the Without / Within Tour. I based the artwork on their track Sahara, the band themselves designed a seal for each town they played that incorporated bears which I also made part of the print. I will have a limited amount of prints to sell at the end of their tour in my etsy shop.
Earlier in September I designed and printed a run of posters for the European tour for Laura. The brief was ‘demonic but no demons’ which I think I managed to pull of well! The hands in the poster are Laura’s! I had the pleasure of going to see her at Symphony Hall in Birmingham as well which was great, a really stripped back set – just Laura and a guitar. The posters have possibly sold out, I will post a link to her site if they have any left in the future.
I was lucky enough to be at Daughter’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire gig last week. Was a great set and an amazing achievement for the band who have a great debut album and have worked incredibly hard this year .It was also great to see the merch stand as I had designed the majority of it! Apologies for the out of focus gig picture!
Finished the last of the prints for Daughter today with the prints for their sold out Shepherds Bush Empire gig on the 29th. Over the last few weeks I’ve also been working with the band Bear’s Den over the last few weeks to design a print for their upcoming tour… now to start printing for them! They have been supporting Daughter in the US leg of their tour as well as Mumford and Sons.

Their tour starts in Leeds on the 1st of November!
Over the last month or so I’ve been working on a set of new prints for Daughters’ up and coming UK and European tour. The band gave me free reign to come up with some idea. The design for the regional dates of the tour was based on the verse of their track ‘Tomorrow’ -By
By tomorrow we’ll be swimming with the fishes
Leave our troubles in the sand.
And when the sun comes up,
We’ll be nothing but dust,
Just the outlines of our hands
By tomorrow we’ll be lost amongst the leaves,
In a wind that chills the skeletons of trees,
And when the moon, it shines, I will leave two lines.
Find my love, then find me.
Posters will be on sale at all their shows and are printed as limited edition for each night of the show. There is also a special print for the Shepherds Bush Empire date that depicts all the venues the band has headlined in London since the start of their career. Each print has been hand printed by myself once again! I will have a few artists proofs left to sell at the end of the tour in my etsy shop if you don’t manage to get one at the gigs.
