For those of you who know me well, it’s no surprise that T.S.O.L. is one of my favorite bands in the world. I came across The Offspring’s cover of “80 Times” about 20 years ago, and I thought to myself, “This song sounds cool, let’s hear some more,” and I was completely blown away by them.

I first saw them in São Paulo in 2013 when I traveled across Brazil just to catch their show. Since then, I’ve seen them about three other times in the US. Whenever they play anywhere near me, I always make an effort to go, because it’s just a freaking blast.

Legendary founding member and bassist Mike Roche has been experiencing some medical issues that began showing symptoms in 2017. It got to the point where, a couple of years ago, he had to step down from his touring duties with TSOL.

Recently, he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. He has started treatment, but now it’s time for us to show him some love and help him have the best possible quality of life.

Here’s a design I made as a tribute to Mike and as a thank you for all the years of incredible music. I truly wish you all the best, Mike!

Tracy Vaughan, Jack Grisham, Ron Emory, Greg Kuehn, and Antonio Val Hernandez started a GoFundMe to support Mike Roche. I strongly suggest making a donation, no matter how small, and sharing it with everyone so more people can contribute. The GoFundMe link is: https://www.gofundme.com/f/frpvn-support-mikes-battle-with-parkinsons

Some references I used for this design include the iconic cover of “Dance With Me” (1981), designed by Mark Wassman, the classic photograph by Edward Colver used on the cover of “Live ’91” (1991), and the cover of the album “Who’s Screwin’ Who? 18 T.S.O.L Greatest Non-Hits” (2005). Unfortunately, I do not know the author of that last one.

Thank you.

I’ve loved music since I was a kid, but at around 11, I started listening to punk rock and I knew I was hooked. Turns out, that feeling stuck with me for life, shaping both my personal and work life. I’ve spent the last 13 years working with awesome artists and events.

One standout experience was teaming up with the legendary Cockney Rejects, a band that’s been around since 1979, influencing tons of others worldwide. After 45 years of hard work, they decided to slow down on touring, focusing on special festivals. In the last two years, they’ve been all over the world, wrapping up with their final two club shows at London’s The 100 Club Oxford St London last weekend. The band personally invited me, leading to my first-ever trip to Europe and the UK.

Hanging out with the Rejects, watching their shows, and meeting cool people was a blast. Huge thanks to Jeff Turner - Stinky Turner, Micky Geggus, Vince Riordan, Joe Perry Sansome, and especially my friend Raquel Coutinho Geggus, who works hard with the Rejects. Thank you all for being so welcoming to my lovely wife Angela and I. Hope to catch up again, maybe at a festival down the road sooner rather than later. Cheers!

Some time ago, I had the incredible opportunity to create the poster for Black Pantera's show in Dublin, an event produced by Midsound Productions.

The poster design was so well-received that it turned into a limited edition t-shirt, later chosen as the cover for the single "Dreadpool" and, finally, for the EP "Griô." The latter, a Black Pantera release entirely in English, is freaking awesome.

It's rewarding to know that both the band and the audience enjoyed the work so much, resulting in such a positive response. Undoubtedly, this project stands out as one of the coolest in my career.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to Charles, Chaene, Rodrigo, Deckdisc, and Midsound Productions for this unique opportunity!

Be sure to check out "Griô" on all streaming platforms and also in the incredible lyric videos, created by the amazing Pedro Hansen and inspired by the EP cover.

Há algum tempo, tive a incrível oportunidade de criar o cartaz para o show do Black Pantera em Dublin, um evento produzido pela Midsound Productions.

O design do cartaz foi tão bem recebido que se transformou em uma edição limitada de camisetas, posteriormente sendo escolhido como capa para o single "Dreadpool" e, por fim, para o EP "Griô". Este último, um lançamento totalmente em inglês do Black Pantera, que ficou do ca***ho.

É gratificante saber que tanto a banda quanto o público curtiram tanto o trabalho, resultando em uma resposta tão positiva. Sem dúvida, este projeto é um dos mais legais da minha carreira.

Quero expressar meu sincero agradecimento a Charles, Chaene, Rodrigo, Deckdisc e Midsound Productions por essa oportunidade única!

Não deixem de conferir "Griô" em todas as plataformas de streaming e também nos incríveis lyric videos, criados pelo incrível Pedro Hansen e inspirados na capa do EP.
