DREAM DREAMS THE DREAMER

Some music news. My solo thing, Dream Dreams The Dreamer, is now an orchestra performing music I'm creating for multiple players. First show was 3 guitars, 2 drumkits, 2 basses, vocals, violin and trombone. Brief clips of a couple moments from playing a drone jazz/ avant doom/ chaos/ raga bliss set live in Birmingham this week:








Initially I'm making some cd-r's in nice packaging, then look to do some official records and vinyl. Get in touch if you're interested.

FLATLINE GENERATION

Here's the cover I've recently done for a new record by The Sceptres.
Also, their singer Bryony does a cool zine called Modern Hate Vibe, go get it now.

HEAT AND LIGHT

Go to this! I've made a free art zine that, if the printing's done in time, will be available on entry to the show.

NEW YEAR

All limited edition prints I made of illustration work before 2009 have been sold out for 6 months and I won't be making anymore. A new year means keep moving forward, new projects, creativity and adventures. Thanks to everyone who got in touch to buy or trade! Your interest and patience is appreciated.
Maybe you're a happy print owner like Harriet here...



... but if you're not and contacted me after the prints sold out, don't fret, there's tons of new stuff on the way. Pictures on here real soon.
With all the bands I started, 6 were active and playing shows in 2008 so I've only had time to finish new artwork in December when there's less stuff happening to go out for. Recently it's been great at home, busy in new images while playing records and imagining possibilities for the months ahead.
Happy new year! Don't waste time... you're alive...
free to do anything... don't stop for anyone!

COME TO THIS

A quick flyer design, asked for by the Capsule ladies.
Lisa and Jenny organise the best shows here in Birmingham, aswell as the annual Supersonic Festival and other cool, interesting, fun events.
Since going to my first Capsule gig 8-ish years ago, my mind's been opened to an infinte stream of awesome stuff. My life is better for knowing them and anytime I get to work with them or play live is a pleasure.
They're the standard to which most else is held up against:
Do It Yourself & Do It Right.
