THE LEGACY OF INTO THE BLUE

Into the Blue consists of veteran Cleveland musicians that found a common purpose in studying and playing the music of the Grateful Dead. With over 300 songs to choose from, their musical stylings run the gamut of American and world music. In the course of one night the band will play rock, Motown, country, reggae, jazz and all points in between with lots of improvisation as well. If you happen to catch them live, bring your dancing shoes and a festive spirit and come celebrate one of America’s greatest artistic contributions to the world with Ohio’s Grateful Dead torchbearers, Into The Blue.

The Challenge

Design and develop an entirely new web presence for a band seeking fans, venues and a chance to prove they are the real deal to fans throughout the Cleveland area.

The Solution

Utilizing band photos, grateful dead imagery and hand-drawn graphics, I was able to create a web “experience” that not only functions as a booking resource / gig finder / music archive but also captures the psychadelia that is Into the Blue.
