Complete was asked to develop a CD design for this Irish Music concert series. Each year, the Center for Irish Music in Saint Paul hosts the Young Irish Musicians Weekend. The event brings in master musicians from all over the world and culminates in a concert. Irish music is not known for being a hot-house of design innovation, so we decide to introduce some fun into the area. Using strong type and illustration we think we’ve come up with something fun and lasting.
