Episode 159 - Garrett Morlan (Bellevue Brewing Company)
This week’s featured guest is Garrett Morlan. We came to learn about him through one of our favorite things, live music - remember that? He created the awesome concert posters for one of the shows we saw on the most recent Avett Brothers tour shows in Brooklyn.
We traced down his work and began following along and realized we had been a fan for some time and loved how he captured his audiences and subjects through profiles and modern day caricatures. Our love of music and some of the icons throughout history are shared and what drew me into his work and journey.
Learn how Garrett found his calling and found himself leaving Brooklyn after attending Pratt and his experiences in the big city to head west where he is now situated and working for @bungie. We also talk about the labels and work he did years ago with @bellevue and it should be noted he hasn’t done labels for them in the past, but this is a great example of why this podcast / project is bigger than beer and how we liberally use the connection with beer to showcase artists and designers from around the world.
From the Avetts to BB King to Jerry Garcia to Willie Nelson and many others in between, Garrett has an amazing way of capturing each of them at different points in their careers, facial hair that make each piece a capture of that moment in time which I love. I look forward to sharing this one with you.
