Umphrey’s NYE 2016

Even though we printed them in a separate run, Kyle’s artist edition of 50 is no different from the main run of 450 which sold out at the venue the night of the concert. We were originally going to do a totally different colorway… but it sucked!

There are two small foil variant editions; Sparkle Foil and Lava Foil, each in edition sizes of 17 (get it??). We added a fourth screen to the variant editions. The thin silver lines on the clock face—which look so great on the dark gray paper of the main edition—disappeared on the foil at some angles. So we burned a new screen and added white right on top of those lines. Thankfully they look totally awesome and we didn’t ruin them! You just don’t know til you try sometimes.

Cheers!

Notes

Kyle has been working for Umphrey's McGee for the better part of a decade. He's made more posters for the band than any one — but this one was extra special because it's his first poster for a Chicago gig and it was a homecoming for the band who had taken their New Years gigs on the road since 2010 after a long tradition of playing to their hometown crowd. It was a great show and a helluva way to end 2016.
