The Poster Art of David Singer – Paper, Ink and Rock n’ Roll – Episode 1

This first episode in Paper, Ink and Rock n’ Roll – A History of Rock Posters features an in-depth profile on David Singer.

David Singer is best known as one of the early Fill­more artists, design­ing 75 posters for Bill Gra­ham, from 1969 to 1990. This was the era before com­put­ers changed every­thing in graph­ics. Work­ing mostly in the medium of col­lage, he has now switched from ana­log cut-and-paste meth­ods to total dig­i­tal manip­u­la­tion of images.

Also known for his cryp­tic hand-lettering, Singer designed the cir­cu­lar Moon­al­ice name that appears on all his posters and is often used as a band logo. David singer cur­rently lives and works in Sonoma, California.
