Jazz Fest Pins and Buttons
Description: Another of my famous Jazz festival poster re-make, this one is from Newport, Rhode Island back in 1963. Which reunite the biggest Jazz stars, not just from that time but from all time, in my opinion. Eunice Kathleen Waymon, known professionally as Nina Simone, even came up from her great Carnegie Hall concert in New York City back in April to this amazing encounter of giants. Those hot summer days were like a young beautiful bride, and the magical talent of all these stars was like a young handsome groom that for four days created an eternal honeymoon of the best Jazz that the Gods ever heard. This tee shirt more than shows a poster is a souvenir of what all those amazing artists create in that magical four-night.
Description: The New York Jazz Festival debuted on Randall's Island on August 24 and 25, 1956 with a similar design as this version. With a very ‘sketchy’ promotional graphics poster, in my opinion, this was the first Jazz festival in New York. The ‘fest’ was promoted with an 8.5 x 11 poor put together a booklet with this colorful design that today you can find it on sale on eBay. I designed my own taking the original concept and elevated it to a more eye appealing. The lineup back then included Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Dave Brubeck, Gerry Mulligan, Joe Williams, Erroll Garner, Gene Krupa, Coleman Hawkins. Louis Armstrong didn’t make it until next year.
Description: The Fillmore District has this fabulous Jazz festival every year over the 4th of July weekend. San Francisco holds several great Jazz festival, but The Fillmore Jazz Festival is the most popular. The Festival offers the best culinary exhibits that San Frans’ can offer also art exhibits to complement it. This is my version of the beautiful promotional poster that year.
