Loving You

From the IM@GINE album http://www.northofnine.com
Track artwork by Jake Ede

Jack Ede is a pencil artist and tattoo apprentice from Sleaford, UK. Some of his latest influences include artists Kelvin Okafor, Michael Zafros and Ashley Oubre, for their photorealistic work. Ede specializes in realism, hyperrealism and photorealism, and for the three pieces he created for North of Nine, he drew most from his personal experiences. First, “The Man I Could Be” inspired him in terms of contrast and duality, and finding light in dark situations. Jack drew inspiration from young ‘puppy love’ for  “Loving You”; and finally, “Changes” reminded him of that the pains he’s endured in difficult situations are temporary and can be overcome with the right mindset.

The Man I Could Be

Track artwork by David Donald Sutherland

David Donald Sutherland is an American visual artist based in Los Angeles, who is currently focusing on abstract expressionism. His works are part of the permanent collection at the Berloni Gallery in London, UK, and he also held a solo exhibit at the Castle Fitzjohns Gallery in New York City. For the artwork created in inspiration of North of Nine’s song “Applause”, Sutherland states: “To make any kind of art come alive, one simply needs to isolate the most basic part of oneself which is affected by whatever it is they are drawing from for inspiration and then deliver it through their own expression.”

The artwork by Dániel Taylor

Dániel Taylor (aka One Man Workshop) is a Hungarian graphic designer specialized in watercolor paintings and double exposures based in Budapest. Coming from an artistic family, Taylor’s influences include Dan LuVisi, Anthony Jones, and Agnes Cecile (Silvia Pelissero). For the art piece inspired by “Something Out of Nothing”, Taylor thought of childhood dreams. In this case, he chose a little boy dreaming of becoming an astronaut with a long path ahead of him, but one that also has endless possibilities.

He's been showcasing unsigned artists since 2003 as the Syndicated Host of The Appetizer Radio Show, and now released a book on radio promotion called "The DIY Musician's Radio Handbook".

In this show, D Grant talked on the role and influence of public radio, the ways (not) to pitch your music, building strong relationships with the industry contacts, the importance of having a great sound and knowing who you sound like, the questions to ask a publicist or a radio plugger you want to hire, and much more.
