All this poster talk has made me think of my favorite posterist:




These are only a few of my many favorites. Jason Munn is the mastermind behind The Small Stakes. I admire him tons and tons. His designs are simple/brilliant. Gosh, in my dream world, one day I will be able to design beautiful posters for all my favorite artists.
I won’t bore you with a list of my favorites, but I feel it appropriate to mention the designs he did for The Decemberists:


Oh, by the way, The Decemberists are currently holding a poster contest for their SXSW gig. Did you know that? Check out their site and pick your favorite! [p.s. your favorite should be the record player one.]
Anywho, it’s all good art for good music which is just downright awesome. Some may say it’s even “inspiring“. Casey sent me that link and it has The Small Stakes all up ons it.
So much badass art errrrrrywhere. Love it.
