Because we wanted our lives to be more cinematic...

For an upcoming show at the Jackpot in Lawrence, I tried to incorporate imagery for each band into one awesome movie poster. Karma Vision once played a show under the name Actor John Goodman. The rest are a bit easier to interpret. 

Architect Music


One night, three bands featuring alumni, dropouts, and current students of the University of Kansas School of Architecture.

Dressed Right for a Beach Fight

After a line by The Who.
Another poster for South Sea Island Magic, featuring an assortment of seashells found on a trip to Sanibel Island. We'd wake up at four in the morning to catch the low tide, search for shells with flashlights, then sit and watch the sun rise.
A wedding gift for two good friends, two years in the making. The band onstage is Horse Feathers, a band from Portland that plays quiet, beautiful folk music. The setting is the Bottleneck in Lawrence, although it's not always this picturesque.
