Design the commemorative art poster for Pete Yorn's new self-titled album and upcoming shows in LA and NYC

Following up on his acclaimed 2009 releases "Back and Fourth" and "Break Up" (featuring Scarlett Johansson), indie rocker Pete Yorn is releasing his self-titled album on September 28th through Vagrant Records. This self titled album was recorded in a mere 5 days with the legendary Frank Black of The Pixies, who said "I tried to get the sessions into a fearless and raw place, and to his artistic credit Pete took his songwriting to that fearless and raw place." The 11-song album expresses Pete's perspective of hopeful realism that he's written and performed from for over a decade.

Pete would like to tap the Creative Allies community to design a collectible poster to commemorate the release of "Pete Yorn" and his upcoming shows at the Roxy Theatre in Hollywood on September 27th and the Bowery Ballroom in New York City on October 5th.

The winning Ally receives a $150 licensing fee and a signed copy of "Pete Yorn".

The first 450 guests at each show will get a copy of the winning poster design!

Pete has the following input for Allies...

My ideal design is about:
- The spirit of ROCK N ROLL
- Deep lyrics and meaning
- A very fun, intimate concert experience

I want allies to avoid:
- Substituting Photoshop tricks for creativity and artistry
