Bon Iver Crowd-Sourcing New Tattoo Design
posted in: Music News
Justin Vernon, the brains behind indie folk project Bon Iver, is planning on getting a new tattoo and has turned to the internet and his fans to find the perfect artist. He has posted on 99designs.com, “looking to have someone design a tattoo for me based on a Northern Exposure episode in the style of Mucha.” The title of that episode is where Vernon got the name for his band, and it holds great personal significance to him as he says it “weirdly explained my life to me.” You can read his full description of the design and see example images here, and if you submit your own artwork, there’s a chance it may be permanently scarred onto Justin Vernon’s right arm.
