This morning four of the five lovely members of Charlie Mayfair came over for tea and cake. I thought I’d break out some lemon sour cream cake (it’s so good that this is the SECOND cake I’ve made in the last few weeks!) and for the first time ever the red polka dot tea set Mum gave me!

After chatting about people wanting to eat their CD, pets with human names and Muse’s astronomical live show budget the guys went and fetched some instruments and serenaded Nick and I in our lounge room with a NEW song. What an excellent Sunday morning!


Some people have asked me if they can buy Charlie Mayfair’s debut EP online, and now you can! Go listen, it’s lovely music.

A little while ago I met a couple of lovely ladies from a band called Charlie Mayfair and they asked me to draw some things for their debut EP and a poster for the launch. It was really cool working with them. I’ve never had a client who actually let me indulge so deeply in my illustrative design style, and to find them a unique visual voice was a distinct pleasure.

You should go and listen to them here and if you’re in south east Queensland do catch one of their gigs too. I’m pretty chuffed that I got to design stuff for a band whose music I really like, and to me they have a real Brisbane sort of sound which I find hard to describe. Some time ago I was a big fan of another Brisbane band, george, and their music reminds me a lot of those days! If you like gentle folky pop with harmonies, you’ll probably like Charlie Mayfair a lot too.

If you’d like to see a few more photos of the poster and CD you can take a gander at my portfolio.
