Interview with Brett Manning
Brett Manning is a 23 year old artist from Chicago. I first discovered her work a couple of weeks ago, when Detroit band The Juliets released their album online. (It’s free until Saturday, and if you like dramatic strings mixed up with your rock music, you might want to download it.) She drew the cover art. When I saw more of her stuff, I knew I had to post more than just a few images. Brett kindly agreed to do an interview, which is behind the cut along with an obnoxious amount of images.

OUR LATEST GIGPOSTER
We got to design and print a poster for Darling Imperial's farewell show at the Berkley Front. They let us do whatever we wanted, so we went with vintage lettering and a weathered, faded feel.
