Description
Playing punk-jazz fusion music, The Same Band held a mirror to society. They commented on social justice and environmental topics—but typical of punk music, they did so with satire. With John Etnier’s graphic design and doodle drawings by Mike Laskey, The Same Band produced humorous advertisements and press releases for concerts and records, with slogans, “Like it or Not, We’re Still Playing” and “Same Band promises to be nice as Maine Festival.”
