The design for this gig poster was influenced by Jeremy’s latest album, “The Reluctant Graveyard”. I took cues from the cover art (depicting a wedding with a bride and groom skeleton) as well as the lyrics; in particular the songs ” A Girl, A Boy, and A Graveyard” and “Deathbed Salesmen”, the last of which has a line:
“This is how it has to end/so love somebody while you can”
This lead to the visual of a wedding cake topper grave stone. The posture of the couple adds some tenderness to the subject matter, preventing the design from becoming too somber.
