I decided I'd produce a book of illustrations based on song lyrics from some of my favourite bands. After I realised the list of bands I'd been influenced by was stupidly long, I decided to cut it down to bands I'd actually seen in Swansea.
I did alot of research on the DIY scene/punk community. Jamie, Owen, Swansea Collective, El Ufo and Kerry Evans featured in my research so they deserve a shout out!
