Firewater Band Poster

Source: New Age Vintage Type (book)
Typeface classification: free handed serif
Description: Decorative title art for band poster for Firewater
How it enhances the message: Firewater describes their music as worldly folk jazz with punk roots and Eastern European and Gypsy influences. If posters could be biologically tested like on Jerry Springer, this one would definitely be the child of Jazz poster and a Bohemian wedding invitation, and in that sense, I believe that the type and art support the influence behind the music 
Influence: This poster represents how important it is to keep the context of your subject matter in mind while choosing your typefaces and designing both layouts and artwork.
