The Struts Poster

Art & Design

About The Project

This poster for British glam rock band The Struts captures the vibrant, high-energy essence of their music and aesthetic. Designed in a bold, vintage rock-and-roll style, it features a dynamic, layered image of the band members in a striking red, black, and yellow color scheme, giving it a raw and electrifying presence. The distressed textures and grainy overlay enhance the retro feel, reminiscent of classic gig posters from the '70s and '80s.

The text elements are equally powerful:

  • The band's name, "The Struts," is in large, blocky, all-caps typography, demanding attention.

  • The phrase "Everybody Wants" (a nod to their debut album) is placed in a red star at the top, reinforcing their rising-star status at the time.

  • The date and location, "The Venue – Derby, UK – July 7th, 2016," ground the poster in a specific moment in the band’s journey.
