The Nude Party – “Chasing That Neon Rainbow” tour poster

In March 2020, rock band the Nude Party embarked on a two-week-long tour titled “Chasing That Neon Rainbow”. Band member Connor Mikita (Great Indoors) did the poster for it.

His design is a wonderful homage to an album cover from 1970 which I had posted to Fonts In Use previously, see The Nashville Sound: Bright Lights & Country Music. In place of the narrow face with flared stems (see Nottingham) featured in the original, Connor used Roberta. And since there is no digital version of Norton Vaudeville Act 9, he opted for another typeface made of dots, Theater Lights JNL. The dates and venues are added in Marvin Visions.

I wonder whether Connor saw the Nashville Sound cover here or elsewhere. Either way, seeing such a lovely tribute makes me happy!
