Romina di Gasbarro – Risorgimento
ROMINA DI GASBARRO
Risorgimento, 2018
My friend and beautiful musician Romina di Gasbarro made Risorgimento (Italian term meaning “resurgence”) as “a musical voyage starting around the unification of Italy in 1861 to present day”. She wanted the album cover to resemble the classic Neapolitan playing cards. After many hours spent on research and editing, I designed this cover art and a suit of images to be used as promotional material.

Aline Homzy – Bitches Brew
ALINE HOMZY
Bitches Brew, 2018
Originally run by Emma Smith in Edinburgh, Bitches Brew’s Toronto session was organized by the violonist Aline Homzy. In Emma Smith’s words “In response to the eternal assumption that the only woman in the band must be the singer, Bitches Brew is a night of music written/improvised and performed by some of the best female instrumentalists around.” The poster features four different stages of Venus’ orbit around the sun which represent the unique creativity each of the four female musical leaders bring to the project.

Vanishing, 2019
(1k Recordings)
Graphic design for Vanishing, the new album by vocalist Fides Krucker (Toronto) and guitarist Tim Motzer (Philadelphia). The layout mimics the cinematic nature of the compositions, leaving plenty of empty space as a reminder of (in the artists’ words) “…worlds that hint at what we’ve lost, worlds in which to disappear”
