The
mad space traveler known as Darren (Biff Bang Pow)
Grealish has paused in this dimension just long
enough to provide the Knitting Factory in Hollywood with the most
imaginative, adventurous, humorous, and all-around confounding
works of art which we use to advertise our music shows we put
on here. Darren has created vibrant and exciting posters for Knitting
Factory Presents concerts such as Beck, the Zombies, the Flaming
Lips, Detroit Cobras, Hot Hot Heat, Low, and even the Seeds! Darren's
style and images show the world how special the artists that
play here are, and in turn how effective he is at keeping his
finger firmly planted on the pulse of todays ever changing music
scene.
