Poster/Print
We have only 20 limited edition art prints, 10 colour, 10 black and white. Created by John G. Muir, roughly A4 sized (a little more square 21cm x 21cm). It depicts how Frank and Kara felt whilst making the new album, locked inside whilst the birds continued on, free and unaware. Hopefully this is symbolic of how a lot of us felt in 2020. It is on mottled, high quality paper and would be ideal for framing in any way one may see fit.

Songs that try and convey his busy thoughts on life and his persistent frustration with the state of the world. He draws inspiration all the way from stories he’s been told at the bar to his inner most personal thoughts on long, slow days spent alone. ... more
