JEFF KLEINSMITH AT SVC Friday April 11th

Jeff Kleinsmith Opening
As art director at the SubPop record label and cofounder of design and printing shop Patent Pending,
Jeff Kleinsmith is a major influence on the visual presentation of
music and bands on CD covers and concert posters. His work with bands
such as the Supersuckers, Sebadoh and Mudhoney in the helped establish
SubPop as a predominant indie music label in the heydays of the early
’90s. In the new millennium, Kleinsmith’s covers for Rogue Wave, the
Postal Service and the Shins have reflected the inroads indie rock have
made into mainstream pop culture. His opening at The School of Visual Concepts will showcase his work of the past two decades. Should be an inspiring event.
