Jamie Drake
Jamie Drake released her achingly beautiful debut album, Everything's Fine, in late 2019. As the world fell apart in 2020, the album gained new resonance — at once timely and timeless.
We collaborated with artist Kristen Meyer to create an elaborate found-object collage atop a striking portrait by photographer Kathryna Hancock.

We envisioned Jamie as a sort of "Mystical Mary Poppins"

Before the album release, we created two black and white single covers teasing the shock of orange life to come.
We worked with the transcendent (not to mention meticulous) artist Kristen Meyer to create the collage. Watch her at work below:
Finally, we made this bizarre music video for her first single, Redwood Tree:
