2023 Southern Soul and Song Poster
Southern Soul's Swan Song.
It's been a helluva ride. We hand pulled our first posters for the Morris Museum's Southern Soul and Song Series out of our tiny office in a warehouse (we were "wierhouse" at the time), enduring both miserable weather and our rookie ineptitude around the screen printing process. Through the years (we started working on the series in 2010) we've approached each batch of concerts with a theme related to the South and touring. It's been everything from trains, motels, postage stamps and shotgun shell boxes to spoofs on the Shoney's Big Boy and the ubiquitous "See Rock City" barn advertisements. We hate to see the series come to an end, but, Lawd have mercy, we sure enjoyed it. Our final installment is a tribute, if you will, to all the posters we've loved before.
“Knowing this was the last Southern Soul and Song poster meant this one had to be special. To reference some of the original posters this one started out as a train station with a huge neon sign, which then became the neck of a banjo atop the Ferris wheel. At that point it became a challenge of how many Easter LEGs could we put into this last hoorah?”
