The Fray Shirts

My old friends in The Fray are about to release their new album, Scars & Stories, next week. With the new album coming out, they’ll be embarking on plenty of tour dates in 2012, and I was asked to submit some designs for shirts to be sold on the upcoming tours. Here are the two that got picked up! I’ve got a serious knack for using the moon, and woodgrain texture.


Mat Kearney Neon

At the end of last week, I was asked to submit some shirt options for Mat Kearney‘s tour that starts later this month. Of the three treatments I sent over, Mat liked this one the best. I’d been meaning to try something neon-sign related. This will be printed up as a girl’s shirt.

Eric Starr’s Business Cards

This is a fun project to start out the week. Eric Starr at Arkham Tattoo in Akron asked me to design his new business cards. When he said he wanted some 19th century Magician inspired imagery, I knew i wanted in. My favorite part is how the front of the card has three different orientations.


Red Forest

This is the cover for the new album from Akron’s If These Trees Could Talk. It’s title, Red Forest, is derived from the radioactive woods near Chernobyl. The songs on this album are gritty and destructive, which is what inspired me for the style of the album art, and the imagery of a burnt out forest. The CD will be self-released, and LP on Science of Silence, both including foil-stamping.

She Came Crashing

This is a logo I’ve been working on for a new band from Philadelphia, called She Came Crashing. The new project of Ray Taddeo, who I met because he was an original member of mewithoutYou. Along with his sister of Amanda, they make some pretty wild dub-step’esque dancy pop tracks.
