Your music deserves a visual identity as compelling as its sound, and in a landscape that is saturated with digital content, your album art is often a crucial first impression, even before they press play.
In addition to being a graphic designer, I’m also a music publicist with over a decade of experience running PR and promotion campaigns for independent artists and labels. I’ve fielded artist submissions, joined listening sessions, and consulted with festival bookers, label heads, producers, and other talent stakeholders to assess potential artists. Through these years of working to connect the dots between the artist, press, radio, talent bookers, labels, marketers, and fans, I've seen time and again how valuable well-crafted album art can be in capturing attention, getting someone to spin your record, and impacting the reach of your release cycle.
I’m also a songwriter and musician myself who knows how much “invisible” technical, creative, and emotional work goes into what people hear and see when engaging with your music. And as a music lover, I know the intrigue, surprise, and lifelong joy that can come from hours and hours of browsing bins, stacks, and shelves of records.
We'll craft artwork that not only looks attractive and intriguing, but also converses with your music, values your creative voice, strengthens your narrative and enhances your promo efforts.
Album graphic design services I offer include a variety of solutions for both physical (print) and digital releases: Cover art for albums and singles, CD/Vinyl disc label art, booklet pages/liner notes, etc. Though I focus on 1:1 (square) designs for CD/Vinyl LP/Digital, I can also do artwork for cassette tapes, VHS, DVD, and other niche formats.
