The Rock & Roll Tree · Edition One

No faces.All legends.

A hundred years of rock, from the Delta blues to the bands playing tonight, grown out of one gold guitar. Every name, no faces.

The Rock and Roll Tree poster: a gold guitar neck rises from a sunburst guitar body as the trunk, with branches for 24 styles of rock carrying artist cards and engraved names, from the blues roots at the bottom to rock today at the top.

The Tree up close

Read it like a family history.

The roots are the music rock grew from. The guitar neck counts the decades. Each branch is a scene, its headliners on cards and the rest of the family engraved into the gold.

Close-up of the arena metal and post-punk branches, with artist cards and silhouettes.
Every scene has its own look. Neon for new wave, blackletter for metal, ransom notes for punk, flannel for grunge.
Close-up of the roots and the sunburst guitar body at the base of the tree.
It all starts at the roots. Work songs, spirituals, Delta blues, gospel, country, boogie-woogie, jump blues and R&B.
The Faceless Rock and Roll badge: a gold silhouette with a blank face and a guitar headstock crown.

Why faceless

Rock was never about the faces. It's about the music.

We tell the whole story: who came first, who they inspired, and the scenes they started. We leave the faces out. Every artist is here by name and by history, drawn as a silhouette on our own artwork.

Our dream is a future edition with the real portraits, licensed properly from the artists and estates. Every poster sold moves us closer to it.
