The band garnered popularity beyond the post-rock scene for their elaborately developed guitar work, what they refer to as "cathartic mini-symphonies," and their enthusiastic and emotional live shows.

2012 13Ghosts / Waverly, Alabama. Poster for Birmingham-based, surf-rock gods, 13Ghosts. That’s right, 13Ghosts on Friday the 13th. Scott Peek always does a killer job bringing in top talent to his shows, plus Standard Deluxe is the best print shop in the South. A little more about 13Ghosts (from Pitchfork) - "Brad Armstrong sings like Richard Buckner at a closed-casket viewing and favors intensely Book of Revelations imagery. 13ghosts continue to reinvent themselves with every song, trying on new sounds and styles to see what fits…The Strangest Colored Lights is a persistently somber, mostly humorless album, but it's so musically vigorous that you wouldn't mind if they dwelt on death for the rest of their lives."

2009 Futurecop! / Austria. Futurecop! are British Electronic / Synth wave artists, influenced by nostalgia and fantasy. Futurecop! consists of Manzur Iqbal and Peter Carrol. Yes, the poster is old-school 3D - grab some 3D glasses.

2011 Duran Duran / All You Need Is Now - US Tour Poster. As a kid in the 80’s I was a big Duran Duran fan, so when the opportunity to do a poster for them came up, I just about lost my mind. I can still remember the beginning of cable TV — when MTV first aired. I remember two videos more than any, John Cougar Mellencamp’s Hurt So Good and Duran Duran’s RIO. I had to recapture a little of the 80s in this one. I’m also a big fan of Patrick Nagel work, this is an homage to his style and I put the image on my parent’s old Curtis Mathis TV.

2012 Poster for Cary Hudson, Laurie Stirratt, and Frank Coutch, aka Blue Mountain. For ten years, Blue Mountain not only ruled Oxford, Mississippi’s music scene, they were world renowned. Voted “Oxford’s Most Legendary Band,” and deservingly so. They were signed to America’s largest Independent record label, Roadrunner Records, were known for touring the globe with bands such as Wilco and Son Volt, and they played some of the best roots rock you’ll ever hear. On a personal note: probably one of my all-time favorite posters — that I have done. Expanded my style to really fit the band and was happy with the result. Printed by Scott Peek at Standard Deluxe.

2012 Mike Cooley / Waverly, Alabama. Mike Cooley of the Drive-By Truckers and a reunion of the Auburn, Alabama favorite band: Local White Bread -- so of course, its a fantastic bread truck. Printed by Standard Deluxe. From the Washington City Paper: “A confession: When I get a new Drive-By Truckers album, I skip ahead to the songs written and sung by Mike Cooley. One of the keys to the Athens, Ga.-by-way-of-Alabama outfit's enduring supremacy is that most bands don't have any great songwriters and the Truckers have always had at least two. Cooley co-founded the group in 1996 with Patterson Hood.

2013 The Secret Sisters / Waverly, Alabama. The Secret Sisters are an American traditional country music duo, consisting of vocalists Laura and Lydia Rogers.

Their song "Tomorrow Will Be Kinder", inspired by the 2011 Alabama tornado outbreak, is featured on the soundtrack for The Hunger Games. Screen printed by Scott Peek at Standard Deluxe.

Dr. John headed west in the 1960s, where he continued to be in demand as a session musician, playing on records by Sonny and Cher, Van Morrison, Aretha Franklin and The Rolling Stones' “Exile On Main St.” During that time he launched his solo career, developing the charismatic persona of Dr. John The Nite Tripper. A legend was born with his breakthrough 1968 album “Gris-Gris,” which introduced to the world his unique blend of voodoo mysticism, funk, rhythm & blues, psychedelic rock and Creole roots. Several of his many career highlights include the masterful album “Sun, Moon and Herbs” in 1971 which included cameos from Eric Clapton and Mick Jagger and 1973’s “In The Right Place,” which contained the chart hits “Right Place Wrong Time” and “Such A Night.”

2013 Waterloo Records - SXSW 2013. From Complex City Guide: “ Talk about standing the test of time: Waterloo is 29-years-old, and it's no less relevant to the Austin scene than it was years ago.
