Black Crowes Shake Your Money Maker Poster By Dan Black Release

 

Iconic by Collectionzz have released three prints for The Black Crowes so far, and they are excited to announce the fourth! If you have attended (or will be attending) the band's Shake Your Money Maker Tour, you may have noticed the beautiful tour poster hanging up in the merchandise booths. Or you may have not noticed it because they've been selling out! Collectionzz can finally officially announce their collaboration with the The Black Crowes in creating those prints, which are illustrated by Dan Black and printed by LandLand!  

 

They're offering an exclusive variant of the tour poster that's printed on a Brushed Gold Foil that gives the colors an even deeper richness, and the script lettering and other finer details throughout the illustration are golden! You won't be able to grab this exclusive variant on tour, now is your chance to celebrate the return of rock and roll!

"Its an honor to create the poster for The Black Crowes' Shake Your Money Maker tour! This art was inspired by many of the songs off of Shake Your Money Maker, but in particular "Struttin' Blues" and the lyrics "out there, breeze is finally blowing, no tellin' when the train pulls in." I think this song is relevant right now for a number of reasons. Not only are the Crowes back, but it's a reunion of fans and live music after a very difficult year. The train's boxcars are textured from the weather but, but they're still solid and the lights are still on. The cities are hand-painted onto boxcars, like badges of honor that tell the story of the Shake Your Money Maker tour and where the caboose has been.

If you look closely, you'll also notice candles, 30 to be exact. Not only are they a reference to "Hard to Handle," but they commemorate the 30th anniversary of the iconic album that the band is playing in full. Hope you enjoyed the show!" -Dan Black

Available Friday September 3rd at 2pm in the Iconic By Collectionzz Store !!

Landland Jack White Regina Saskatchewan Poster

Dan Black of Landland has designed a sweet looking poster for Jack White's tour.

Details from Dan:

As you might've guessed, we have released more posters. I'm really excited to've been asked to make a poster for the current Jack White tour...Rob Jones himself called me up and handed me the Blue Pantone keys to the Jack White style guide and I asked him some questions about gas stations and then I got to work. I'm a person who really likes designing to some strict rules, so working with this weird (to me) color palette was kinda thrilling, and it really paid off when I popped over to the Official Jack White Live Instagram and saw it slotted into that ocean of blue and black. Feels cool to be a part of it.

Jack White November 5th, 2018 at Brandt Centre in Regina, Saskatchewan of Canada
Three-color Screenprint on 100# Cougar cover stock measuring 18" x 24"
Signed & Numbered Artist Edition of 90

Jay Ryan x Landland Pitchfork Music Festival Poster Release

This past weekend was the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago. And as usual it was hot, it was rainy and crazy.

Jay Ryan was fortunate enough to get to make posters for this year's festival in collaboration with the good folks of LANDLAND.net - (Dan Black and Jessica Seamans). This process, which is different from how Jay usually works, was amazing - Dan was in Austin for much of the time they were co-working on the line drawing of the Green Line "L" station at Lake and Ashland in Chicago. Jes determined the colors to be used for the prints via a watercolor painting scanned in Milwaukee. Diana Sudyka helped by contributing a watercolor painting of a sky which was placed behind all the other elements. Jay drew much of the underside for the building (most of the red parts), while Dan drew most of the siding and windows (the blue parts). Jay Ryan wrote the text of all the bands which have played Pitchfork over the last ten years (meaning all those bands were written by hand), and Dan drew the text pertaining to this specific event. These were screenprinted using a four-color process (CMYK), as opposed to spot-color screenprinting which Jay usually uses. They turned our particularly well.

Jay had a complete blast working on this and hope that you like it even half as much as he does. The edition was 880 pieces, signed by Dan and Jay, with numbering assistance by Jason "Small Stakes" Munn, who was visiting from California.

Most of the prints sold at the festival, but they are posting their copies to BOTH thebirdmachine.com AND landland.net at 1pm CDT on Monday, July 20. You can visit either site if you would like a poster. They look really sweet in person. Also go HERE to see my pictures from the festival of the artists.

Tyler Stout BRAIN DAMAGED and Olly Moss Mondo 2012 Shirt Series

Last weekend at FANTASTIC FEST, Mondo debuted a brand new t-shirt line curated by Tyler Stout. These t-shirts, under the banner, BRAIN DAMAGED, feature a mix of brand new designs from Tyler as well as four other artists he personally selected. Mondo could not be happier with the final result and thought they'd let Tyler offer a little background to the project...

Dr Shirtlove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Pink Shirts.

I contacted 4 artists: Arik Roper, Boneface aka Stu, Dan Black of Landland, and Richey Beckett.  I asked each of them if they'd be interested in contributing, and I was fortunate enough to receive answers in the affirmative.

I've long been an admirer of Arik Roper. He's done some some amazing poster and album artwork and is a monster talent in his field. He came in with some really strong ideas for shirts, and his final piece was epic.

I've seen some pieces around by an artist named Boneface and thought they were really cool.  I wanted something apocalyptic like that for this series, and he delivered in spades.

Dan of Landland is another awesome poster artist that has captured my interest for awhile. I thought he'd bring something more unique and a bit abstract to this series, and I was really pleased with the resulting shirt.

Richey Beckett's crazy attention to detail consistently blows me away.  I wanted something that felt intricate in the series and I believe his final shirt really represents him as an artist.

I managed to contribute a few shirts as well, and hopefully they all work together as a fun series.

So, thanks to Mondo for the opportunity, and hopefully people enjoy the shirts.

In addition to Tyler's BRAIN DAMAGED t-shirts, they'll also have a brand new Mondo/Dredd mash-up t-shirt designed by Olly Moss. All t-shirts printed on American Apparel and cost $25.

On sale today at a random time at Mondotees.com

Arcade Fire mania continues to sweep across the nation! Follow the band as they head down the East Coast and into the South. This poster, designed by Wes Winship with help from his friend Dan Black (of LandLand), is available in five different color versions, one for each night of the tour.

If you haven't had a chance to see the band perform live yet, I strongly recommend seeing them! I may be biased (did you see the MSG show), but Arcade Fire puts on one of the best live rock shows you could hope to experience.

19 x 25"
3 color print on Cougar white paper
$30 with shipping in the US / $35 international

Purchase all five and save $15!

In the poster for Arcade Fire's recent tour stop in Toronto, Wes Winship and Dan Black combine the rigid, repetitive life of the modern man with the rigid, repetitive chant of ROCOCO buzzing in his head. It's enough to drive you crazy.

19 x 25"
4 color print on Cougar white paper
