Misadventures of A Romantic
MOAR or “Misadventures of A Romantic” is the second project released by R&B singer-songwriter Poet22. It’s a short–but sweet– trip down the path we all take when falling in, and out of love. You can hear a taste of this bittersweet feeling from the project's lead single time zones. Poet’s ability to switch in between sharp, soft and relaxed vocal deliveries leaves each listener with a lyric they can scream, shout or cry to on this 4 track EP.
I was honored to design the album cover with assistance from Tamira Slade & Poet22. I assisted the album cover shoot, lead by photographer Jarrett Lampley, and captured some BTS of the shoot.

Together we brought together various small businesses, non-profits, and artists in community for a night of performances, giveaways, and delicious drinks at Chicago's famous lesbian bar Dorothy Downstairs! To make this event happen, we were able to partner with Lighthouse Foundation, LuvSick Plus, Ivy Hall Dispensary, Miyagi Records, and Record Breakers . Sponsored by Chelsea B. Sodas
