Sensitive Subject is a soulful Blues and Rock band dedicated to creating good music and amplifying women’s voices…even when it is a sensitive subject. In this poster design, I wanted to pay homage to both the dark yet playful nature of the bands being showcased. What may appear from far away as moody, allows for moments of bright delight as the viewer gets color.
