Howard Hewitt Graphic Design Project

Howard Hewett is one of the most gifted vocalists in the Post-Marvin Gaye era and has established himself as a venerable soloist from the classic generation of R&B / Soul. Blue Bistro Creative had the pleasure of working with Howard and his team to put together his latest press kit. Throughout the process, we listened to music from that period to connect to the spirit of his music. And although we love modern music, there is nothing like the music from the golden age of R&B / Soul, and Howard was among the legendary voices of that era.

Understanding Hudson Valley, New York native Victor Todd - - his aesthetic, his essence, and his eventual emancipation. Let's start in the middle and work our way out. After having been homeless on the streets of Atlanta for almost two years in 2006, Victor Todd ended up on a drug-driven, somewhat journalistic journey across the country. Even though he was content to live on the streets day by day, with everything he owned in his backpack, he knew he had to do something different. He needed to escape, to discover, to experience things that he was not used to. Through a series of intrepid interludes he ended in, as he says, a “relationshit” with a former drug dealer turned long-distance truck driver who wanted to take him for a ride. Victor was reluctant, but not having many viable options he decided to take that show on the road - - mainly because his partner at the time provided him with what he “needed.” Cleaning Lady by Viko Kidd The 18-wheeling road-winding jour...
