There is some really great use of typography in the gig posters designed by Chicago-based Nadine Nakanishi and Nick Butcher of Sonnenzimmer. They are very different from the normal gig-poster fare and it’s nice to see a departure from that scene (although I do love me some good ole old school crazy drawn gig-posters).

Seatle-based Sasha Barr has some really nice screen printed poster work in his portfolio at This Is The New Year. All of the posters possess a really loving touch and he isn’t afraid to experiment with different styles which is great.
Holy crap. I discovered Chicago-based, Delicious Design League today while dropping in on Yewknee and was really blown away. They have created some phenomenal poster work, some of which is just downright beautiful. They made me want to start up a screen printing shop immediately. You can buy them too. It might be time to finally start a gig poster collection.
The first volume of what I can only assume will be the first of several Gig Posters Coloring book has been released and is available for an incredibly reasonable 10 bucks. Can’t beat that with a stick.
