Keith Connolly is an artist
and musician based in NYC, and a founding member of the No Neck
Blues Band (NNCK), a group which has performed internationally and
released numerous recordings over the last 10 years. Functioning
as art director for NNCK's recorded output he has worked alongside
NNCK members Matthew Heyner (also of IZITITIZ) and JF Ryan (ex-NCCK,
now Excepter) in designing album covers and packaging. His own packaging
designs and album cover art, notably the custom CD package for "Sticks
and Stones May Break My Bones But Names Would Never Hurt Me"
(Revenant, 2001), the "Everborneo!" LP (Seres, 2003),
and recently the "Dutch Money" and "First Kingdom
of the Ghost" LPs (Seres, 2004) have helped to define the uniquely
anonymous aesthetic NNCK has become known for.
The posters included in Vishnu to Woodstock were handmade, photocopied,
hand distributed or hung in shops, venues, etc. for the purpose
of promoting events. In many cases this was to be the only publicity
for the event.
In addition to NNCK, Keith Connolly is a member of The Suntanama
and the Miighty Flashlight band and currently resides with his wife
Mary in New York City.
