Golden Handshakes RIP
The Handshakes are dead! Long live the Handshakes!
Some things are just too beautiful for this world, they have to leave it before they get tarnished by the daily mundane horrors of life. Also, The Golden Handshakes split up. Ha ha ha. As soon as I knew it was time for them to go, I decided the only reasonable course of action was to eulogise them with a new website. This is the result - more of an animated flyer really, that collects together all the songs I made as a Golden Handshake in case anybody ever wants to hear them again. You never know.
Over the years I did quite a bit of design for the Handshakes. You do when you've got a band but you prefer drawing pictures to making music, it's just how it is. Shown here as well as the eulogy are the artwork for our stillborn first single on Multiverse Records and the viral game (remember them?) that went with it.
