We got a really nice write-up in the August/September 2010 edition of American Craft Magazine. You can read the article here online.

Last week Joe Conkwright of WUKY’s Curtains @ 8 was nice enough to ask us to come on the show and talk about art, social media, and being a small business. It was a really fun, casual conversation and you can hear it now on the online art & music magazine Tonic…just scroll down and hit the listen button!

Cricket Press is proud to announce we’re in a great new book:
ROCK PAPER SHOW!

Rock Paper Show documents the first decade of the twenty-first century as the high-water mark in the storied intersection of graphic design and music. Against the backdrop of the digital- music revolution, the rock poster reemerged during this period as the calling card of impossibly talented new artists and design studios brought up on Black Flag, Joy Division, the Flaming Lips, and the Melvins. Simultaneously, the posters that these studios produced were celebrated by a rapidly growing nation of indie-rock fans who all woke up one day craving beautiful new music-related objects in their lives. The excitement—matched equally in the design and music worlds—was captured by and celebrated via the birth and rapid rise of Flatstock, the American Poster Institute’s ongoing rock-poster exhibition.

Since its inception in 2002, Flatstock has evolved into the definitive showcase of the most talented poster artists working today. Rock Paper Show: Flatstock Volume One is an editorial and visual history of the first 20 Flatstocks, with contributions from the artists and studios that regularly attend the events and the bands who are often the subjects of the posters, as well as critics and collectors involved in this community. Rock Paper Show collects for the first time the original posters created for each Flatstock by the attending studios. Veteran poster-makers take the reader on behind-the-scenes looks at the studios, the artists, the regional scenes, and the personalities of this vibrant and varied community.

Curated by Geoff Peveto (president, American Poster Institute).

The music blog You Ain’t No Picasso was cool enough to ask us a few questions! Some of the topics: the relevance of gigposters, gigposters.com and the site’s new book Gig Posters Volume I: Rock Show Art of the 21st Century… which we were fortunate to be included in!

Our segment is the last third of the show. We were really thrilled with how it came out. KET did a great job with it.
Enjoy!
