Polaris Music Prize 2014: Mac DeMarco

For another year we had the pleasure of screen printing the Polaris Music Prize nominee posters which have been hand crafted by fellow Canadian illustrators and designers!

BC born Vernor Winfield McBriare Smith IV or Mac DeMarco to you and me is nominated for his second and (critically acclaimed) album ‘Salad Days’ which was recorded in his Brooklyn bedroom.

Ontario’s own Melinda Josie created DeMarco’s rad leafy poster, we get a lovely mention on her blog thanks Melinda!

Available to buy here at Kid Icarus now, limited stock so act fast!
$35.00, 18″ x 24″ 5 colours on white coverstock.
