They, The Undeserving

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

I just finished up the new sleeves for a limited run of Giants‘ “They, The Undeserving.” The record has been out of print for several months, but the band has an extra 100 un-packaged LP’s, so they had me screenprint a run of new sleeves for this limited run. 100 hand-numbered, hand-pulled sleeves. They are all ready to ship out to the label and to the band. There they will hand-insert the records and everything into Plastic Sleeves. Check the Mylene Sheath in the near future to pick up this limited run.

If These Trees Could Talk

Friday, September 18th, 2009

Here is the cover of “Above the Earth, Below the Sky” Vinyl Edition, by If These Trees Could Talk. The Vinyl edition is coming out on the long time friend label The Mylene Sheath. The layout is composed of several analog photos that I shot with my Holga. The goal of the photos, and the composition, is to illustrate the ominous landscape setting that is produced by this epic band. As always, the Sheath is dedicated to packaging, and the record will be pressed up on Super High Quality Gloss Stock, and will have a Spot Matte Varnish. And of course, on colored vinyl.

3 Bears at Battle of the Bands

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Looking forward to checking out some upcoming talent at The Underground in Cincinnati, Ohio this Saturday, September 19 . I will be on a panel of judges helping decide who will win $10,000 in cash towards making their “rockstar dreams” come true…not too shabby if you ask me?! I also will be judging on October 17th as this is a 6 week competition. Please be sure to check out the event if you’re close to the Nati, and stop by our table and chat. Whether you are interested in hiring 3 Bears in the near future or are just a fan, I would love for a chance to meet you. Hope to see you there!

Katie Herzig Fall Tour Merch

Friday, September 11th, 2009

Here is a poster that I just completed for Katie Herzig to sell on her fall tour with Brandi Carlile and Over the Rhine. Her band-member Jordan is going to be screen-printing these, as well as a t-shirt version. Also, Jordan’s printing company is called ‘Prints of Whales,’ hilarious.

Updates – New Shirts!

Monday, September 7th, 2009

Despite appearing in hibernation for the past several weeks, we have actually been incredibly busy. This labor day break allowed me time to update our website with a bunch of new work, and you can expect to see even more happenings in the near future.

I also have been needing to mention that in the past month, we have worked together with Revivalist to re-print and re-stock a bunch of our t-shirts in our Online Store. We now offer the Ohio Shirt in Girls Sizes and Unisex XS-XL. All shirts are printed on American Apparel 50/50 Heather Plum t-shirts. Get them while it’s still summertime. Dave from The Fray seems to love his!
