Tartufi, who we love to death, signed to Southern Records not too long ago, recently released the fantastic "Nests of Wave and Wire," and are soon to be on their way to the UK for a string of dates with Marnie Stern, culminating in an appearance at the Supersonic Festival in Birmingham. To celebrate this awesome string of events, I printed just shy of 30 of these posters, and gave 20 to the band. Three colors of increasing smaller and more "busy" leaf and tree images are layered under the tour information. I tried a few with a final green layer, but the ink was too runny and it smeared on a couple of posters (plus it was a bit too dark against the text), so the bulk of the posters were printed white, silver, gold, and black on buttercup yellow. They measure 10 1/4" wide by 20 1/2" tall. The gold and silver inks are irridescent. The photos leave a bit to be desired, but I think you get the idea. I'm pretty happy with how these turned out. Get in touch with the band if you want a poster.
