NIGHT ON EARTH second hand release

In December 2008, Night On Earth's second album entitled ‘Second Hand’ was released, under the label of Upstar/Sony. The album was the result of the innovative collaboration between the band and songwriter Thanassis Papakonstantinou who also produced it, hosting widely acclaimed guest musicians from a broad range of musical background of the local scene. ‘Second Hand’ introduces our perspective on the songwriter’s older material, creating songs based on his music and lyrics and bringing together diverse influences ranging from free jazz and post rock to Greek folk music.
I was responsible for the art direction of the album, designing the whole package including booklet. The design was a compilation of "retouched" stamps,drawings and hand written lyrics.
