DAVE NAVARRO x TAZ / NHC OHANA FESTIVAL PRINT

Dave Navarro and TAZ are working on some top-secret projects, but Dave has a cool new band, NHC, which stands for Navarro, Hawkins, and Chaney. He enlisted TAZ to put together a fresh new poster that positions the band visually for an upcoming show at OHANA Encore in October this year, along with Pearl Jam, Beck, and a few others. 

Dave wanted something that evoked the summer of love circa 1967, but with a fresh flair and a power trio feel. The poster they came up with is a 7-color silkscreen print with 2 split fountains and hand-lettered by TAZ in my conversations with TAZ I mentioned how trippy and sick the lettering was. This collectible poster will be printed by the legendary Gary Lichtenstein and will be a very limited run. Each print will be signed by Dave, Gary, and TAZ and will have a certificate of authenticity. A few will be available at the event, the others will go to lucky insiders and fans who know the artists and want to own an amazing one-of-a-kind collectible.

There might be an online release at some point, keep an eye here on the blog and TAZ's IG  https://www.instagram.com/jimevanstaz_official/

Steve Thomas Woodstock 1969 Poster

 

In August 1969 — against the backdrop of a nation divided over politics, civil rights, and the Vietnam War — half a million people converged on a small dairy farm in upstate New York to hear Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Janis Joplin, The Band and other music icons in a concert billed as “3 Days of Peace and Music.”

What followed was beyond anything anyone could have predicted. The cultural phenomenon no one foresaw transformed an ordinary field into a historic landmark where legendary performers played to more than 450,000 people. Unimaginable mud and unforgettable moments transformed Woodstock Music and Art Fair into a cultural rallying cry for an entire generation. It was the defining moment of the counterculture revolution – and it changed their lives and the world forever.

Collectionzz decided to create a poster which not only represented peace and music, but also the grounds upon which it all took place. When Woodstock was being conceived, the original plan was for it to take place in Wallkill, New York. But after locals panicked over the scale of the project, the event was banned. This only brought more attention to the event, which organizers originally assured would only draw 50,000 attendees. Needing a new venue for the event, promoters were introduced to dairy farmer Max Yasgur. His 600-acre farm in Bethel Woods, NY, just about 40 miles southwest of Woodstock, became the site for the historic event. They thought what better way to celebrate Woodstock than with art paying homage to Max Yasgur's dairy farm!

Tupac All Eyez on Me Poster By Mexifunk

As we look back 25 years since its release, All Eyez on Me was Tupac without compromise—a deep look inside his mind. It captures him at his most vulnerable and provocative. Executing an array of styles at an almost impossibly high skill level that never feels like an exercise in form, and is a remarkable final document from one of his generation’s defining voices.

"There are artists that come on the scene and just perform. AND THEN, there are ARTISTS who do more than perform- they motivate and cast a golden brilliance throughout a generation. For me TUPAC is one of them very few artists who had so much to share because he had lived the best he could and was able to deliver so much beyond any controversy. It's the reason why I collaborated with Collectionzz to honor the 25th Anniversary of ALL EYEZ ON ME. We chose to screenprint them on a brushed gold foil paper to pay homage to the brilliance that emanates from Tupac's wise words of wisdom.” -Mexifunk

Iggy and the Stooges Detroit 1969 Print by Godmachine Release

 

Exactly fifty-two years ago on July 20, 1969, arguably two of the most important moments in mankind occurred at the same time. First, at 10:56 p.m. ET the American astronaut Neil Armstrong put his left foot on the lunar surface and famously declared, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Also at 10:56 p.m. ET Iggy and the Stooges were playing in Detroit, Michigan. No doubt, equally important to civilization.

In the summer of 1969, most of the world simply didn't know what to make of Iggy Pop and the Stooges. The brash and abrasive band blasted out of the Detroit underground with a seething vengeance, armed with caustic songs laced with bracing titles, like "I Wanna Be Your Dog." But The Stooges essentially laid out the blueprint for punk rock to generations of noisemakers eager to plug in and turn it up to 11. The album's brutal and violent approach was reflective of the mood of a nation dealing with the atrocities of the Vietnam War, and civil unrest bubbling up across the country.

"My memory of the original years was a transfixed, frozen attention," Iggy Pop told Rolling Stone in 2007. "Few people wanted to be anywhere near the stage. They would just stare. It was as if the audience was a gigantic cardboard cutout, a diorama. Nobody moved. Nobody went to the bathroom," he cracked. "Little by little, people started liking it. It was mostly high school kids -- tenth graders," Pop continued. "What we did didn't bother them. They thought the riffs were cool. The songs said something to them. And then there were the Ramones, sitting in Queens, going, 'I can get with that. It's kind of simple.' It didn't bother them at all."

The Stooges were a late addition to the bill at the Grande Ballroom on July 20, 1969. Audience accounts of the evening recall Iggy being told on stage that Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. Ecstatic at the news, Iggy proclaimed "I'm gonna play a special dedication" and the Stooges played "1969" in honor of the event. Well fifty-two years later, we're going to honor it all with an out-of-this-world Iggy and the Stooges print by the one and only Godmachine.
