The Cold War Kids are a pretty well known band and Matt Maust plays bass in that band. But that’s not why we called him. We called him because of his art.
The band’s album art has always caught our eye, and once we realized someone actually made it, and it wasn’t just a photograph of ancient litter, we got curious about what must be an odd process by an interesting man. We lined up a studio visit and what we found was an exhausting, odd, cluttered workshop of memories and thoughts made into a beautiful paper dream.
This is the premiere episode of the new What Youth Artist Series, produced and directed by Michael Cukr.
