At the recent (and inaugural) Jazz Meet Record Fair I brought some of the printed A3 posters along to sell and today I received this lovely photo from one satisfied customer. It’s nice seeing them framed and in what looks like an impressive record room. All the posters are for sale to all via the […]

April 1st would have been Gil Scott-Heron’s birthday and to celebrate his life and mourn his passing The Jazz Meet are doing a special birthday tribute to the great man on March 31st. I’ve collaborated with illustrator John Peter Raven for the poster.

For The Jazz Meet posters I occasionally collaborate with illustrators and for the December poster I teamed up with Valencian-based duo Nuria Bellver and Raquel Fanjul, better known as Cachetejack. As you can see, their illustration universe is full of colour, energy and humour. They were a joy to work with and produced something which I think […]

I’ve been lucky with my clients and have, for the past few years at least, always had work to do at the start of January thanks largely to the publication schedule of Historic House magazine. However, 2012 is starting with what seems like an extra dose of incoming and ongoing work. Not sure if this […]

I am proud and honoured to stay I have a selection of The Jazz Meet posters on sale at the moment at a pop-up shop in Manchester. The Manchester Modernist Society, publishers of the modernist magazine, have launched a modernist pop-up shop at 142 Chapel Street, Salford M3 6AF (close to Salford central Station and the Kings […]

When I last posted about The Jazz Meet I mentioned that the venture might becoming a weekly one – this has now happened and as such the look for the event has had to change accordingly. May and June’s flyers are shown below, along with the new reverse for the generic flyer which you may […]
