I recently completed an illustration for ‘A Country Night in Nashville’, who are currently beginning their UK tour, recreating the music of many Country and Western legends.

My brief was to generate an illustration, depicting the interior of a typical Nashville music bar, often populated with portraits of legendary stars of the Nashville music scene, antique tin signs, neon, classic guitars, and general ‘Americana’.

The purpose of this main image, and it’s accompanying side banners, was to create a visual backdrop to add authenticity, and visual interest to the band’s stage environment. The final main stage image was printed on cloth at 7 x 10 metres, and the side panels at 8 x 2 metres!
