Since the day they opened their studio in 1994, the Ames Bros took off and never touched back down. Out of the gates their talents were recognized by rock greats Pearl Jam, a client they've shared many successes with, including Grammy nominations for their clever and artful packaging for Vitalogy and Yield. In the music industry, it's common knowledge that Ames Bros helped turn the lifeless cd package into the unique collectible that it's predecessor, the record jacket, was. Their most notable contribution to the Rock world however, is via their screen printed Rock posters (check out their 10 page spread in the new "Art of Modern Rock"). They've designed hundreds's of original screen printed posters, as well as CD packaging, and, of course, T-shirts for the likes of Neil Young, Radiohead, Coldplay, Sting, Phish, John Mayer, Snoop Dog, Foo Fighters, The Strokes, The Hives, along with dozens of Indie Rock bands. Hell, Frank Kozik, the most renowned poster artist has dubbed the Ames Bros as "the best poster artists in the business."It wasn't long before the general public and the advertising world caught wind of the duo and their work starting popping up everywhere. Soon they were sought out to execute ad campaigns for the likes of MTV, Nike, the NBA, NFL, AOL, Nissan, Honda, Absolut, Nascar, EA sports, Powerbar, Sony, Sprint, and Got Milk? Sir Richard Branson even gave them the keys to his company, Virgin Mobile, putting them in charge of branding and positioning the company to it's core audience through fully designing and producing the magazine "USER" and accompanying websites.On an international scale, they landed a spot in the prestigious Taschen book, "Graphic Design for the 21st Century, 100 of the World's Best Designers" and have been featured in dozens of other books, magazines, and even college textbooks. The Ames Bros are a force to be reckoned with.
