Taking Back Sunday

Tell All Your Friends 10th Anniversary Logomark

My design career began in music.

One of the first bands I collaborated with, reunited after an extended breakup, was early 2000’s pop punk darling Taking Back Sunday. After a summer of photographing and filming the band, they invited me to design their Tell All Your Friends 10th Anniversary logo, which would be featured on all tour merch, every album, and Dave’s bass drum.

I was in. Of course I was in.

The circular design we debuted features an interwoven microphone cord design, reflecting frontman Adam Lazzara’s iconic mic-swinging stunts. The design was displayed on drummer Mark O'Connell’s bass drum on Taking Back Sunday’s TAYF10 Tour in 2012. The logomark was also featured on the album art, a redux of the band’s platinum album Tell All Your Friends.
