I recently finished some colorful Happy Birthday, Graduation, and Many Thanks greeting cards. They were fun to make and came out vibrant and psychedelic. I’m happy with how they turned out. Purchase all three designs HERE.
Two New Show Posters
Mid West Music Fest and Sam Amidon / MMAM Commemorative Show Posters Now Available For Sale In the Tally Mark Press Store
May was a busy month for Tally Mark Press. I set up a booth for two very funky Winona-based music events.
On Saturday, May 13th, I was a the Mid West Music Fest, where I sold a limited edition commemorative mini-poster.
The following Saturday, May 20th, I set up a booth during the Sam Amidon Driftless concert at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum. I designed and printed a commemorative show poster for that event as well. You can see both below. Both are now available for sale on the Tally Mark Press Store.
Joe Meek & The Blue Men
Joe Meek’s Tea Chest Tapes: The “I Hear a New World” Sessions
(Cherry Red Records, 2023)
I’ve been prepping for an upcoming show at a local gallery and the under-lying theme of the show will be my love for collaged music. I recently came across this excellent reissue of Joe Meek and The Blue Men’s rare I Hear a New World album.
I Hear a New World Sessions: An Alternative Outer Space Fantasy, 10-inch Vinyl EP includes the sessions behind the recordings. This is right up my alley and if you’re into early electronics, experimental recording techniques, surf music, Ennio Morricone, Esquivel, early Beach Boys, or early space rock, this will take you to those planets. I dig it.
