Bringing Music to Life: 70s-Inspired Art for Concert Posters and Album Covers

Creating concert posters and album art is one of my favorite aspects of web design. There’s something timeless about the styles from the 70s that I find incredibly cool, especially when combined with a mid-century Linocut style. I don’t think you always need a photo of the band to create interest; sometimes, art can capture the tone or vibe even better.

Take, for example, Led Zeppelin’s 1969 Fillmore West and Winterland poster featuring an avocado with eyes—such a simple, funny, and unique design that’s still memorable today. That’s the kind of creative, impactful work I strive to bring to every project. Whether it’s a concert poster, an album cover, or any other piece of art, the goal is always to capture the essence of the music in a way that

resonates long after the final note is played.
