I had the pleasure of designing another CD package for another great band, The Prairie Acre. They play old time music and are highly skilled at it . They may also be the nicest people in the state. Watch them play.
They are also good friends and fun to work with. Meetings were a breeze. We would talk about the design, talk about music, drink some wine. My kind of meetings. Thanks for the libations Greg.
They had hired Matt Needham to take the photos, so it was nice working with quality photography.
Notes after first meeting. Whats this you say? what are these word things in your sketchbook?
Now we sketch.
And sketch.
Here are some of the hand drawn elements after a concept had been chosen.
The art for the disc was based on an old center label of a 78 record that one of the band members grandmother recorded.
