I like music.

Obey Convention + Live on CKDU

oh haiii

A little while back I got asked to do the artwork and branding for Obey Convention IV, a super cool music and arts festival that's been happening for the last few years in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I was pretty stoked because 1 - it's mostly all organized by Darcy Spidle, who runs the very neat label Divorce records (www.divorcerecords.ca), 2- it's arguably the only festival of it's kind on the east coast, and 3- the lineup this year looks awesome and I wish I could go. Check out who's playing and what's up here: www.divorcerecords.ca.



If you're in the Halifax area or maybe just sitting at your desk at work wherever you happen to be, tune in to CKDU (88.1 FM) to hear my nasal, valley-girl voice. I'll be chatting with the folks at Third Wave Radio this Thursday, May 27, sometime between 1 pm and 2:30pm EST (that's 2-3:30pm Halifax time).

Here is a poster I made for the new show by the dance group Wants and Needs (www.wantsandneeds.ca)



Finally, here is a photo of a cake my roommate, Dom, and I made when we were feeling lousy. It may be hard to read, but it says "FTW" and has bleeding bullet holes.

I'm not very good at updating my blog.

This is for a show in Liverpool (the one in England):


...and another show that has already happened:

a benefit for a cool Art Therapy resource called The Center for the Arts in Creative Human Development.

I play guitar in a punk band called Dead Wife and we have a single out on Psychic Handshake and No Vacation records. Psychic Handshake is the record label I started with my friends Graeme and Shaun and this is our fourth release. We're putting out another single at the same time by another Montreal-based band called Tonstarssbandht.

You can read a review of Dead Wife - DWSYHF here.

The Dead Wife artwork package is really neat, too. The insert is a fold-out poster. Here is a preview of a little part of it:
