Around 2017, Nick Mason, the drummer from Pink Floyd, was looking to do a few small gigs playing his favourite tracks from Piper At The Gates Of Dawn & A Saucerful Of Secrets. They needed a poster to promote the gigs and we duly stepped up, inspired by posters of the era from the UK & US scenes. The Dingwall’s & Half Moon gigs turned into a tour – and over time, we’ve designed the accompanying material, including two limited edition posters for the Roundhouse gigs in 2018 & 2019, only available on the nights.
2018 – Roundhouse, round drums, round poster. Pink Floyd launched their musical career in the Roundhouse way back in 1966 – it is their spiritual home. To celebrate the return of the longest serving member, Nick Mason – he commissioned us to create a unique poster – it was an instant sell out.
2019 – The Saucers returned to the Roundhouse the following year, and once again instructed by Nick to create a companion poster to the previous one from 2018. This one moves the design forward with kaleidoscopes and subtle ‘two’ references to reflect the second coming – mirror images and Nick’s return to using two drum heads.
