THE CLIENT
BlackCar is the recording project of Daniel Glendining, former frontman of Headswim. In 2024, BlackCar took to the stage at The Lexington, London, performing a rare set of unreleased material—an intimate, atmospheric show that marked a new chapter in Dan’s musical evolution.

THE PROCESS
Commissioned through Trapped Animal Records, I was asked to create the full artwork for a limited CD and digital release. Dan supplied a stunning selection of moody film photographs, and the brief was to build a visual identity that reflected the introspective, textural quality of the live performance—something that balanced the rawness of his grunge roots with the maturity of a seasoned songwriter.
The final piece combines contemporary typography with the quiet intensity of the imagery, creating a cohesive and collectible design. Dan was delighted with the result, which now accompanies the release across physical and digital formats.
